Imagine suddenly finding yourself in pre-revolutionary St. Petersburg. You don't have a phone or a bank card, and they're useless here anyway. You need to find decent accommodation, eat safely, avoid getting lost, and generally just survive.

As you travel back in time, take this guide with you. It's not about the sights, but about everyday life in the capital of the Russian Empire and the details of everyday life that are often overlooked. You'll learn where to eat, how to get to the city center, what to do with a toothache, how emergency services work, where to go shopping, and where to find news and trending memes.

Here you have St. Petersburg without any retouching—noisy, inconvenient, unfamiliar, and yet surprisingly recognizable. A city where deliveries, traffic jams, fast food, and pyramid schemes already existed, they just looked a little different. Everything you need to survive in the capital of the 19th century, collected under one cover in a convenient instruction manual format. Enjoy your time travel!
