St. Petersburg, whose webcams can be viewed online on this site, is a city that is worthy of acquaintance and a long stay in it.

But not always a trip to the Northern capital can last long enough to get acquainted with all its countless treasures. If the trip is limited in time, it is worth knowing the main attractions that you can see, even if the trip is limited to one day.
You can start your acquaintance with the city from the Peter and Paul Fortress, moving towards Nevsky Prospekt. It was from here that the construction of the city on the Neva began at the beginning of the 18th century. It is noteworthy that the fortress did not perform defensive functions. It immediately became a prison for prisoners accused of high treason.
Today, anyone can enter the territory of the fortress. From here, you can walk down a paved street to the beach, which offers stunning views. You can also admire the picturesque surroundings from a specially equipped observation deck.
There are permanent exhibitions on the territory of the Peter and Paul Fortress. These are the collections of the Museum of Cosmonautics and Rocket Technology, Architectural Ceramics, Science and Technology, History of Money. Temporary exhibitions are also often held on the territory of the fortress.
It will be interesting to look at the prison for political prisoners of the Russian Empire in the Trubetskoy Bastion. There you can see antique furniture, feel the eerie atmosphere of the place where the traitors of the Motherland were expected to be sentenced and served their sentences. A separate collection is dedicated to the prisoners of the Soviet period.
The territory of the fortress also includes the Peter and Paul Cathedral and the Grand Duke's tomb, in which representatives of the imperial Romanov dynasty are buried.
From the fortress you can go down to the Spit of Vasilyevsky Island. This is the section from the Peter and Paul Fortress to the Winter Palace, which is considered the main square of the city. The center of the composition of the Strelka, which is a cape dividing the Neva, are the Rostral columns. Once they served as beacons. Today, their lights are lit only on the occasion of major holidays.
From here you can see the historical building of the Exchange, reminiscent of an ancient Greek temple. Nearby is one of the famous Russian museums, the Kunstkamera, with a collection of alcoholic mutants, which began to be collected back in the era of the foundation of the city.
