Saint Petersburg

Saint Petersburg is not just Russia's second-largest city after Moscow, but also it is the 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 sites as well as an important Baltic Seaport. Saint Petersburg is known for its rich historical legacy, 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 other attractions. When it comes to the sea, it's 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 during the summer. Here is one of the best dive sites in Russia.
