Are you sure you know St. Petersburg?

Nevsky Prospekt, the Hermitage, the Vasilievsky Island Spit, the canals—they're all wonderful. But the real, multilayered city begins where most people pass by: in the inconspicuous arch of a tenement building, on the stairs of an ordinary entrance, by the curved lantern above the portal, in a stained-glass window with a pre-revolutionary inscription, in an ancient plaque that no one reads.

"Secret Places of St. Petersburg" is your personal key to the "behind the scenes" side of the city. There won't be a dry "look right, look left" here—only the most unusual locations and a hunt for details: hidden symbols, unexpected sculptures, underground courtyards, and artifacts that turn a walk into an investigation.
