Saint Petersburg

Saint Petersburg is not just Russia's second largest city after Moscow, but also its second most populated, with a population of almost five million people. Saint Petersburg, once the country's capital, is now one of Russia's most famous tourist destinations as well as an important Baltic Sea port. Saint Petersburg is known for its rich historical history, canals, and royal palaces, and is also known as Russia's most romantic city.

Saint Petersburg is Russia's most romantic city, but it is also the country's cultural hub, with opera and ballet theaters, museums showing Russian art, cathedrals, imperial homes, and more. When it comes to the water, it is a fascinating sight to behold and much more so to explore. Scuba diving in St. Petersburg, Russia, is a one-of-a-kind experience and a terrific way to cool off in the summer.
