It's freezing in St. Petersburg. Take a walk around the beautiful church that is beyond description.

A quick winter trip from Novosibirsk to St. Petersburg. At that time, I planned to make the most of the few hours I spent. Because there is a clear goal You must go see the two places that are rumored to be beautiful and "not to be missed"

There was no snow that day. But it was so cold it felt like my face was frozen. The wind beats my ears without consideration

Who is not used to the coldness of Russia? For Thai people like us I must say it's "really cold" if you have earmuffs or a hat to cover your head. It will help a lot

Subway, the companion for beginner city travelers

The subway system in St. Petersburg is very convenient. Use it to travel to important places easily, even though most of the signs are in Russian. And most people don't speak much English. But if we keep smiling Use your hands to help point out the assembly. Or open the map on your mobile phone to see. Many people are happy to help. Some people can speak English. It's enough to get us to our destination safely

Church of the Savior on Spilled Blood, beautiful from the outside but closed for repairs

It's a bit of a shame. The day I went to the Church of the Redeemer on Blood. This place is closed for internal repairs. So I didn't get to see the famous 7,000 square meter mosaic that is said to be so beautiful that you have to look up and look again

But the outside is no different. Brightly colored churches that look like they came out of a fairy tale So outstanding that you can hardly take your eyes off it

A little warning. Around the church there were people dressed in period costumes. Or invite a falcon to take pictures. Don't be shy. Don't accidentally chat or take pictures. Because he may charge a very high price later

I've encountered it myself. But luckily I did my homework first. So I walked around and walked out safely without worrying

Saint Isaac's Cathedral, the grandeur that must be walked up to experience

This second church is open for viewing as usual, and let me tell you, you are not disappointed in the slightest. It was originally the main church of the Russian Empire. It took more than 40 years to build

The exterior is large and magnificent. Giant granite pillars greet you. And the most outstanding thing is the golden dome that can be seen from all over the city

The interior is spacious, luxurious, and peaceful to the point of feeling like you've entered another world. If anyone has the energy, we recommend going up to the dome to admire the view. You have to walk up several steps of a spiral staircase.

You may encounter some tour groups. But if you come in a small group of 1–2 people, it's easy to walk and have fun taking pictures.

The view from above offers a panoramic view of the city. Definitely worth the sweat spent

Even though time is short, But St. Petersburg left quite an impression. From the cold wind that blows your face and makes you numb to the two great architectures It's true Russian beauty

Who will follow this trip? If you come during the winter It is recommended to dress warmly. Prepare yourself to encounter strong winds. and did a little homework
Then you will find Even if you only walk for a few hours in this city, it's "enough" to make you think about it for a long time.
