St Petersburg is the second largest city in Russia and plays an important role in the domestic economy. At the same time, it is also the most westernized city in Russia and the window of Russia to Europe. Han provided? There are many rivers, many bridges and many people. Describes the beauty and prosperity of St. Petersburg. This city is located in the northwest of Russia, on the east bank of the Gulf of Finland in the Baltic Sea, with many rivers? Venice in the north? The reputation of. This city has a history of more than 300 years. Since Peter the Great moved his capital to St. Petersburg in the17th century, it has been the political, cultural and economic center of Russia for more than 200 years. 1924 was renamed Leningrad in memory of Lenin, and199/kloc-0 was restored to St. Petersburg in. St Petersburg is rich in tourism resources and dotted with famous scenic spots. Han Xu quipped that not coming to St. Petersburg means not coming to Russia. Han provided? Visit the three palaces (Winter Palace, Summer Palace and Catherine Palace), see the lake (Lake Ladoga), the sea (Baltic Sea), the river (neva river) and other landscapes? Arranged a trip to St. Petersburg. It can be described as well-intentioned and meticulous.

In front of the bronze knight statue of Peter the Great in The Decemberists Square in St. Petersburg, Han Xiao tells the story of Peter the Great emotionally, which reminds people of the cruelty and domineering of the czar in the film. Peter is a famous emperor in Russian history, and he is also a great and savage, wise and humorous, broad-minded and full of lofty sentiments, who dares to take the world by storm and set a precedent in history. After he succeeded to the throne, he established industry, developed trade, strengthened cultural education and scientific research, reformed the army, established Lu Haijun, and then launched a war to seize the Baltic Sea. He devoted his life to Russia. It can be said that without him, there would be no rise of the Russian Empire, and his achievements have gone down in history. Today, the bronze knight statue has become a landmark sculpture in St. Petersburg. Visitors to St. Petersburg always come here to express their respect and worship.

Han suggested that we should visit three palaces in St. Petersburg: Winter Palace, Summer Palace and Catherine Palace. It is also a must-see for a trip to St. Petersburg.

The Summer Palace, the Summer Palace of Peter the Great, is also called? Russian Summer Palace? 、? Peter Palace? . It is located in the forest on the south bank of the Gulf of Finland. It is about 30 kilometers away from St. Petersburg and covers an area of nearly 1000 hectares. We arrived here in less than an hour. It's sunny all the way, sky blue and white clouds. Han Xiao told us that St. Petersburg has a maritime climate, and the weather changes like a child's face. It doesn't rain at all for only sixty or seventy days a year, so people here have to take an umbrella with them every day when they go out, so that they can keep out the rain and shade themselves from the sun. It is rare for you to meet such sunny weather when you come out this time. After the car stopped, everyone filed out and followed Han provided. This luxurious and magnificent palace is a magnificent two-story building, and the gilded domes on its wings shine in the bright sunshine, showing the royal style. We entered the upper garden from the south gate of the Summer Palace. Looking up, the blue sky in the distance is in line with the Baltic Sea, and there is a huge fountain at the foot. The flowers planted around the fountain form a beautiful garden, which is amazing. We walked down the steps and someone called us. Pearl of Russian art? You can have a panoramic view of the garden next door. More than 65,438+000 fountains spray in all directions and from different angles, among which the water column sprayed from the lion's mouth in the center of the spring pool is as high as more than 20 meters, shining with the brilliance of gold plating and the silver shadow of the water flowing in the sun, which is very spectacular. According to Han Xiao, the fountain is in good condition after more than 200 years of pressure injection without electricity. In addition to appreciation, I praise the intelligence and wisdom of Russians. Not far ahead, I see a sea, which is the Baltic Sea. On the way to the seaside, there is a quiet forest. Walking in it, the top of the head is a faint blue sky, and the foot is a flat sand road. Birds sing from time to time in the distance. We bathed in the cool sea breeze and breathed the fresh air full of negative ions, as if we had entered a fairyland. Tourists on the beach, either gazing quietly, bending down to play in the water, looking out at the sea, or taking pictures as a souvenir, can't bear to let go of every beautiful place. Happy time is always short, and when we get together again, we have to reluctantly board the return bus. On the bus, Han Xiao told us that this Summer Palace is the summer palace of Peter the Great. Built in 17 10, it is known as the Palace of Versailles in Russia because of its magnificent architecture. It was severely damaged by the Germans in World War II, but with the efforts of Soviet artisans, the palace miraculously recovered from the ashes to today's amazing and radiant buildings, which was listed by UNESCO as? World cultural heritage? . The beauty of the Summer Palace Garden is natural and primitive. There are fountains made of gold outside, and there are huge ancient trees everywhere. The dark green leaves sway in the wind, making St. Petersburg a mature, charming and unique place. Walking in the jungle, everyone becomes a landscape.

The Winter Palace is located on the bank of the Gulf of Finland, opposite to neva river. It was originally the palace of the czar of the Russian Empire. After the October Revolution, it became a part of Elmy Tashi Museum in St Petersburg. It is an outstanding example of Russian neoclassical architecture in the middle of18th century. Tashi Museum in Elmy, the British Museum in London, the Louvre in Paris and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in new york are called the four largest museums in the world. The museum was originally the private museum of Russian Queen Catherine II. History is dusty. Nowadays, people come here to visit the Winter Palace every day. For many years, there has always been a long queue waiting to be visited in front of this magnificent green and white art hall. Because the exhibition hall is very large and there are too many tourists, in order to prevent getting lost and getting separated, Han Xiao put on headphones for each of us and listened to Han Xiao's crisp and pleasant explanation while walking. The Winter Palace was built in the middle of18th century. It was destroyed by a fire in the19th century and was rebuilt. At the beginning of the 20th century, after the Russian czar was overthrown, it became a bourgeois provisional government. After the October Revolution, the former imperial palace returned to the people. It was later converted into a museum. In this huge building, there are more than 3 million antiques and art treasures from all over the world. If you watch each exhibition for one minute, it will take eight years to finish it. So Han Xiao led us to choose the essence of its essence and hang a leak to watch. This palace contains the treasures of world famous painters such as Picasso, Matisse and Leonardo da Vinci, as well as the original display of bedrooms, restaurants and reception rooms in the czar era. Its luxury, exquisite materials and exquisite workmanship are unparalleled in the world. The walls, corridors, picture frames and handrails in the palace are all colored with a lot of gold, which makes the whole interior of the Winter Palace look noble and elegant. The luxury of the tsar's life in those days was amazing. Whether it's architecture, roads, greening or supporting facilities, the Winter Palace seems to have entered a dream kingdom and an art palace. Like the trees in the virgin forest, they pay great attention to species collocation and density. Wild ducks, squirrels, pigeons, sparrows, crows and other birds can be seen everywhere, stopping at people's fingertips unscrupulously. On that day, I was completely immersed in the sea of art in Wang Yang, greedily absorbing the rich nutrition of human culture.

The next morning in St. Petersburg, Han provided us with a bus to Catherine Palace. While listening to Han provided to introduce Catherine Palace, I enjoyed the scenery outside the window, which was very lively. Along the way, European-style villas flew by with the milky white morning mist, and the beautiful birch forest wiped the windows from time to time. There is no depression of high-rise buildings and car horns along the way, which makes people feel happy, as if they are on vacation. It takes less than an hour to drive to Catherine Palace. It flashed through my mind? Is it wonderful? This word. I think, with? Is it wonderful? Catherine Palace cannot be described more accurately. Han said that the palace was a gift from Peter the Great to his wife yekaterina, so it was named after her. Catherine Palace is also known as the Royal Village. The palace and the garden are integrated and the layout is very beautiful. This magnificent palace is 30 meters long. The sky blue of the outer wall symbolizes the queen's eyes, white symbolizes the queen's delicate skin and yellow symbolizes the queen's blonde hair. The whole building complex is fresh and soft in color, full of femininity and charm. It can be said that this is the world of poetry and the ocean of flowers. Perhaps it is to protect cultural relics and avoid disturbing the queen's soul, so we should wear shoe covers to visit the palace here. We quietly followed the guide into every room of the palace. This is a golden world, with golden walls, golden columns and golden palace lanterns everywhere. In the palace, luxurious pure wool carpets, soft silk curtains and precious western murals are very fresh and elegant. The offices, living rooms, recreation rooms and restaurants of all kinds of personnel are also well decorated. The most precious thing in the palace is the Amber Room. The hut is very small, only 55 square meters, but it is all made of amber, which is 12 times the price of gold at that time. While using 850 kilograms of amber, diamonds, gold foil, silver foil and other materials were also used, totaling 654.38+million pieces, with a total weight of more than 60 tons, which is a miracle of the world. Leaving the palace, we came to yekaterina Garden. Here is another landscape. The tree-lined paths covered with fine red sandstone, lush lawns, colorful flowers and crystal-clear ponds constitute a beautiful landscape painting, and walking in them is like a fairyland. The exquisiteness and beauty of Catherine Palace can only be stored in memory.

Lake Ladoga, located 70km northeast of St Petersburg, is the largest freshwater lake in Europe. 1937, St. Petersburg people built a new Ladoga Canal around the lake, which became an important waterway connecting the Baltic Sea and the Volga River. During the siege of Leningrad, this waterway became the property of urban residents? The road of life? . When I first saw Lake Ladoga, I thought it was not a lake, but a sea! Endless waters, the momentum of water and sky, both spectacular and beautiful! Although the lake is very big, there is not a boat in sight. It is said that the lake is stormy this season and it is not suitable for sailing. The shore of the lake is a scattered stone beach. Foraging waterfowl perch here from time to time and don't care about the tourists on the shore. At noon, we ate the grilled fish from Lake Ladoga in a Russian restaurant with local characteristics by the lake, and the fresh and tender taste still made our mouths water.

Fort Peter Paul is located on Rabbit Island on the Neva River in the center of St. Petersburg. It is a famous ancient building in St. Petersburg. When we visited Fort Paul, it was already past two o'clock in the afternoon. The sun shone from the clouds and reflected golden light on the spire of the bell tower of St. Peter Paul's Cathedral in the fortress. Some local citizens on the beach are sunbathing and enjoying a quiet time. The military fortress Peter Paul has long been a thing of the past, and now it has become a famous tourist attraction in St. Petersburg. This is a six-sided castle, along the neva river side, with a wall height of12m and a length of 700m. Paul fortress has St. Peter Paul's Cathedral, Bell Tower, St. Peter's Gate, Peter the Great's boathouse, mint, arsenal, Courant Wilco turret, December Revolution Monument and other buildings. However, as a hasty tourist, we didn't watch some places carefully, but learned some stories from the introduction of the tour guide. St. Peter Paul's Cathedral and the fortress were built at the same time in 1703, which contains the tombs of Russian czars from Peter the Great to Alexander III. The bell tower of the cathedral is 122 meters high, which is the tallest building in the city. Soon after the fortress was built, it ceased to be a strategic place. 17 17 years, it became a national prison, and once held many celebrities, such as Radishev, Chernivsky and Gorky.

Taking a cruise in St. Petersburg is the happiest thing. St. Petersburg is a water city, known as? Venice in the north? . The beautiful and broad neva river passes through the city, and tributaries and canals in the neva river crisscross or surround the urban area. There are more than 300 bridges in the city. Feel the amorous feelings of neva river by boat, and don't have a taste in your heart. The boat sailed slowly on the Neva River, and the breeze felt particularly cool on it. While tasting the famous vodka, watch the Russian national customs performance on the boat and enjoy the beautiful buildings on both sides of the strait. From time to time, there are sightseeing speedboats flying by on the river, as well as luxury cruise ships from Nordic countries. The famous cruiser Avril is also moored on the Neva River. The cannon of the October Revolution? This is where it rings. Han Xiao said, 28 kilometers of neva river, a 74-kilometer-long city, flows through St. Petersburg and walks on Neva Street, so you can enjoy the invisible flowing St. Petersburg. The cruise ship is divided into two floors. In the lobby on the first floor, the big glass windows are bright and transparent, and the middle of the front is written in Chinese and Russian? China and Russia will always be friends? Banners. On the boat, I enjoyed the scenery on both sides of neva river, and the buildings on both sides were arranged neatly like an oil painting. Meilun Mobil was really pleasing to the eye. The second floor can be used for tourists to take photos and enjoy the scenery on both sides of the strait. There is a dining chair for six people in the lobby on the first floor, with attractive Russian food, big bar, caviar, champagne, Russian vodka and so on. I found a front seat and tasted all the food and wine on the table. Several beautiful Russian women dressed in traditional costumes appeared in turn. Accompanied by cheerful music and passionate dancing around me, I can even feel the wind brought by the actors. Their fair complexion, sapphire blue eyes and well-proportioned figure left an unforgettable mark on me. In the interactive session, one of the beautiful young Russian dancers began to look for the target. Let's sing and dance together, raise our hands and pose, or scream? Next, a blonde Russian beauty suddenly came up and invited me? Meet the bride? . This beautiful woman molested me and held hands and hugged me? The whole cabin began to boil, all kinds of harsh whistles, all kinds of language input, all kinds of envious eyes, overwhelming me and the blonde in my arms. Me and the blonde? Deep feeling? Looking at each other, instead of verbal communication, is action? Confess? . She pulled me, I pulled her, she gestured, I imitated, and laughed and flew out of the cabin and over neva river?

It is said that Neva Avenue is called the Champs Elysé es in Russia. The buildings on both sides of Neva Street are well preserved, especially from the uprising square to the naval headquarters. It is simply an outdoor museum of Russian historical buildings, and vivid historical scrolls are directly presented to you. Neva Street is a place I can never get enough of, including historical charm, colorful, bustling, crowded, Ma Rulong, endless stream, blondes passing by, art halls passing by, and exquisite commodities passing by? I only measured less than half with my feet. If I have the chance to go to St. Petersburg again, I will not hesitate to keep in close contact with Neva Avenue on foot until the end?

During the three days, led by Han Xiao, we either visited or looked out or listened to her introduce Pushkin City, Smolny College, Kazan Cathedral, Bloody Cathedral, Aphrodite Cruiser, St. Petersburg Military Port, Naval Church, the Sphinx of ancient Egypt, and the appearance of Repin Academy of Fine Arts. After a short visit, we can still appreciate the elegance of famous European cities, imagine the powerful national strength of the czar in his heyday and witness his stay.

Due to time constraints, it is impossible for us to visit this famous cultural city in detail. The place I have been is just a microcosm. Travel, time is always so fast, so fast that you will come unconsciously; Meeting is always so beautiful, so beautiful that you can forget your troubles and worries. St Petersburg is such a charming city. Although I didn't list all the scenic spots I saw in these three days, there were too many surprises and shocks in these three days. That kind of beauty makes me think, that kind of nobility makes me look up, that kind of elegance makes me impressed, that kind of atmosphere makes me admire. It can be said that St. Petersburg welcomes tourists with a fresh and natural attitude and faces tourists with a simple and vicissitudes attitude. There is a natural beauty without makeup, a clean and tidy environment, and a simple beauty with elegant temperament.

St. Petersburg, I am intoxicated by your unparalleled artistic atmosphere. I have never been invited to attend the meeting. My eyes have been watching. You are the best encounter in my memory. You are always singing birds and flowers in my beautiful spring.
