Stop At: Savior on the Spilled Blood, Griboyedova Kanala Emb., 2B/A, St. Petersburg 191186 Russia

Designed after 17th century Russian churches, this ornate, festive Orthodox cathedral is like a window into Muscovite antiquity right inside very balanced and refined centre of Imperial St. Petersburg where Classicism style reigns supreme. The building is a memorial to one of the most popular Russian Tsars, Alexander II “the Liberator”, who was mortally wounded on the site. I’m sure you’ll appreciate its exquisite marble floor, iconostasis carved of semi-precious stones and interesting mosaics covering every inch of the walls and the ceiling.

Duration: 50 minutes

Stop At: The Museum Complex The State Museum St. Isaac’s Cathedral, Isaakiyevskaya Sq., 4 Nevskiy Prospekt metro station, St. Petersburg 190000 Russia
