Hello,
I would like to visit the Hermitage by myself, I mean without taking a tour. Are there any special days when it is open only for groups?
Thanks for your help.

Have a nice time in our city!
The Hermitage is great to just wander. You can rent self-guided audio tours if you like, or just read a book about the collections ahead of time. There is too much to see ina day or two, pick your highlights!
We always go without tour.
Visit the Hermitage which houses some of the most beautiful paintings in the world Seeing all the gold they put into their buildings e.g. roofs of cathedrals and palaces have gold. Also as I walked through one street that was being dug up, I found that the whole city was built on sand.
Finding Internet access to check e-mail, send a fax, off-load pictures and so on is simple in St. Petersburg.

This is the tomb of the famouse Russian Rock singer Victor Tsoi ('Kino'). He died in automobile accident in 1990. Now many of Russian singers (Zemfira, Mumii Troll, Checherina...) sing his songs.
It was his birthday at the end of June. There are always plenty of flowers and people on the Bogoslovskoje graveyard.
My girlfriend SOLA, her parents and myself visited family in Kolpina, half an hour outside St. Petersburg. It was quite different from what I've seen in Moscow and St. Petersburg. Not as modern, and most of the houses was from after the war.
Don't miss the smallest dog
The Petersburg Orchid is the world's smallest breed of dog. It might look more like a kitten at first glance in the owner's hand. Or a very large hamster. :)
But is is a real dog.
We have seen several in the center of Saint Petersburg.
In years past you usually saw large dogs in Saint Petersburg. Big strong working dogs. That fit the soviet ideal. But also it is very impractical to live with a big dog in a small urban apartment.
Now smaller dogs may be seen. And with luck, the world's smallest can be added to the sights you see in Saint Petersburg. :)
