Album 303
(Translated by Natalia)
Peter and Paul fortress and it's neighbourhood.
Of course, we've yet been here. But there's never too much of good things,
isn't it?
I won't really comment the pictures, I've done it a lot of times. Let's
just watch…
|
We enter the fortress by the bridge that leads from
Troitskaya square (near subway station Gorkovskaya).
At the left and behind the mosque is seen. |
 |
 |
Iohannovsky bridge that leads to Iohann
gates (they're behind me). The fortress is situated on Zayachiy
island. |
| Troitsky bridge |
 |

Troitsky bridge once again. On the other
shore - Mikhailovsky castle with a steeple. |
| Peter and Paul cathedral with the church
tower |
 |
 |
The Boat house near the church tower.
Was built especially for keeping the boat of Peter the First. (The boat
now keeps in Naval Force Museum, and here is just a copy). |
| We're walking out from Zayachiy island by
wooden Kronverk bridge. Ahead in the distance we see the masts, that
weren't here before. Let's come a bit closer… |
 |
This restaurant build here since this
autumn. Certainly, the public was indignant, and so on.
But who's going to listen when the building is planned in such a "tasty"
place? :) |
