Considering the Prestige Hotel Vasilievsky in Saint Petersburg?

Saint Petersburg is a creation... by maxovna
Saint Petersburg is a creation of the great Russian tsar Peter the Great, the city is named in his honour. Later, after the socialist revolution Saint Petersburg was renamed into Petrograd, 'the city of Peter', later in became Leningrad, 'the city of Lenin'. After the collapse of the USSR it was renamed into Saint Petersburg again. People call it just 'Piter', to make the name shorter. You must visit the monument to the tsar, which is called 'the copper rider'. It is situated on the bank of the Neva river.
