TOURISTS TOLD WHY THEY LOVE SAINT PETERSBURG 07.10.2021
According to the results of the voting conducted by the Tvil service among users of social networks, 44.86% of respondents voted for St. Petersburg streets. Yalta is in second place, Sochi is in third.

The philosophy of St. Petersburg - a beautiful and comfortable city - is formed not only by its classical dominants - straight central avenues and streets, open views, architectural ensembles, but also by new spaces on the city map. They become points of attraction for citizens and guests and fashionable places for walking. The author's excursions, including evening routes, open up a new look at the city and reflect the aesthetics of a special St. Petersburg environment.

The locations of the new tourist geography of the Northern capital receive well-deserved recognition as the best places for selfies and walking photofilms. "St. Petersburg is the entire architectural ensemble of the historical center, you can shoot these views endlessly. But new "instagram brands" are also appearing in the city - "New Holland", "Sevkabel Port", - said the head of Rostourism Zarina Doguzova.

According to the citizens themselves who took part in the voting within the framework of the project "(from) personal Petersburg", organized jointly by the Committee for Tourism Development of St. Petersburg and the online publication "Fontanka", "New Holland" topped the rating of public spaces of the Northern capital. Monuments of industrial architecture of early classicism have been restored here, equipped recreation areas have been created, entertainment events, holidays and festivals are held. Art objects are also located on the island, the newest of which is the digital transformation center "tSifergauz", which presents art projects for all lovers of digital technologies and art.

According to the results of the voting, a Guide on the new tourist geography of the city on the Neva was compiled within the framework of the project "(from) personal Petersburg". One of the directions of this guide leads beyond the boundaries of the city center, to a new tourist cluster – Kronstadt. Its forts are recognized by residents of the Northern capital as the best place to get acquainted with the history of the naval glory of Russia, and the park "Islands of Forts" with game attractions is the most attractive space for family holidays.

"St. Petersburg is a city with an actively developing infrastructure: well-equipped walking areas, cozy cafes, atmospheric cultural centers. The city was conceived by its creator as a bridge to Russia, and centuries later it remains so - not only one of the most beautiful, but also one of the most modern megacities in the world. Currently, viewpoints and spaces are appearing in the city on the Neva River, which make walking around St. Petersburg both comfortable and interesting. We continue to develop routes and programs of the new tourist geography, reflecting the uniqueness and attractiveness of the Northern Capital for any audience and in any season," commented Sergey Korneev, Chairman of the St. Petersburg Tourism Development Committee.
