RUSSIA 2019 - ST. PETERSBURG (DAY 3)

On the 3rd day in St. Petersburg we were taken to Nevsky Prospekt, St Petersburg Mosque and also a visit to Catherine Castle. On the way to those places, we stopped for a photoshoot here - St. Isaac,s Cathedral.

Nevsky Prospekt

This is the main street in the city of St Petersburg. Here we did some shopping at the Galeria Shopping Mall (the largest and most famous in St Petersburg) situated near the Moscow Railway Station. We also had lunch at a restaurant on the 4th floor named Baklazhan Restaurant. The ambiance and food served met our expectations.
