A Local’s Guide to St. Petersburg, Russia

Kristina Avdeeva is not just a great travel photographer. She is also a person who, along with her partner, Niko Tsarev, shares her love for the sea and sailing in a project called Sea Soul Diary . Together they travel the world in search of pristine waters and unique sailboats and, above all, dive into the local culture, making every journey a learning experience.

This interview is part of The World Made Local , a global collaboration between the seven international editions of Condé Nast Traveler in which 100 people in 100 countries tell us why their home turf should be your next destination.

Tell us about your connection to Russia.

Russia is a country with a harsh climate, but with a warm heart. My ancestors were born here; my relatives live here. St. Petersburg has become my second hometown after Moscow; here I found my love. Its proximity to the Gulf of Finland and Lake Ladoga contributed to the formation of a huge number of rivers and canals. This is precisely why St. Petersburg was nicknamed “the Venice of the North.” For me, it is one of the most romantic cities on the planet.

If a friend was visiting for just 24 hours, what would you tell them to do?

Petersburg is beautiful from May to September. It is even better in June, when the nights are short and bright. During the day, you should definitely take a walk along the embankments along the canals toward the Neva, visit the Summer Garden, and in the evening you should jump into a boat, consolidate what you saw during the day now from the water, and see the main magic—the opening of bridges under the sunset sky.

Any hotels and restaurants you could recommend?

St. Petersburg is the gastronomic capital of Russia. Due to high competition, almost every restaurant is very sensitive to service and product quality. It is worth staying in the city center at the Wynwood Hotel . You can choose a room overlooking a quiet courtyard or the embankment of the Griboyedov Canal. From there, a panoramic view of the Kazan Cathedral of the Mother of God and the building of the Singer company opens. Delicious breakfasts are available for guests on the ground floor at Jungle Cafe . And, if after a long walk you do not want to go far, then the next door in the hotel building will lead you to the Greek-Georgian restaurant Nino Cuisine . The reception will help you book a table.

Kristina Avdeeva

What should this person see and visit?

To feel the whole atmosphere of the city, do not be lazy to walk. If you leave the Wynwood Hotel and walk along Nevsky Prospect, then turn onto the Moika embankment, you will find yourself on St. Isaac's Square, where you will be enchanted by the cathedral of the same name. Bypassing it, you will find yourself on the boulevard, which will lead to the island of New Holland—an oasis of local city life with good restaurants, music venues, an open-air cinema, an artificial beach, and shops. 

The key roles of the island's gastronomic life are two restaurants of Matilda Shnurova, who was included in the rating of the best restaurateurs in the world— Cococo Bistro and Cococouture St. Petersburg . Book a table in advance; it is tight here regardless of the season. By the way, Matilda has a third restaurant for healthy-food lovers, which serves sugar-, gluten-, and lactose-free dishes. Bio My Bio is located in the SO/ Saint Petersburg hotel, which is also suitable for city life. It offers views of the Almirantazgo de San Petersburgo and the city's rooftops.

Your favorite neighborhood?

The historic Kolomna District, where we live, is one of our favorite and quiet places. It has beautiful architecture of the 19th century, a lot of greenery, bridges, and is not the most popular place among tourists. The area is bordered by the Admiralty shipyards, which were founded by Peter the Great in 1709. Many seagulls live here, and the engine of shipbuilding machines can be heard. So the sea soul of St. Petersburg makes noise.

Best time to travel to St. Petersburg?

Do not be afraid of winter; come to Peter’s city at any time of the year. Even in winter! Seeing the snow-covered Hermitage and ice drifting in the spring against the backdrop of granite embankments is a little magic that will make you fall in love with this city forever.

Integrated solar roof from India

Visaka Industries’ patented Atum solar roof is reportedly able to reduce building temperatures by up to 40%.

ATUM integrated solar roof

From pv magazine India

India-based Visaka Industries Limited, a sustainable construction materials developer, has announced its integrated solar roof will power the Climate Lab at Anant University’s Ahmedabad campus in Gujarat. Visaka will also supply its Vnext fiber cement boards, an eco-friendly alternative to climate-damaging plywood and gypsum.

Visaka’s Atum solar roof will cover the 390-square-meter area of the lab and produce 70 kW of solar power to run the facility.

The manufacturer said its Atum solar roof is a great alternative to metal sheets, reinforced concrete sloped roofs, or clay tiles for industrial, commercial, and residential buildings. The roof is reportedly able to resist fire damage for over 2.5 hours and withstand wind speeds of 255 kilometers per hour.

According to the manufacturer, the solar roof also has a thermal conductivity of 0.072 W/mtK and thermal insulation that reportedly reduces building temperatures by up to 40%.

“The installation requires a steel structural grid for mounting the Atum solar roof modules, accessories to anchor the Atum modules straight on the steel structure, and BOS and inverters to commission the plant based on whether it’s an on-grid or off-grid system,” stated a Visaka spokesperson.

Atum has been successfully installed across many locations in India, including Chennai (Tamil Nadu), Mumbai (Maharashtra), and Hyderabad (Telangana), as well as in Sharjah, in the UAE.

Is Saint Petersburg Safe? Crime Rates & Safety Report

On Feb. 24, 2022, Russia invaded its neighbor country Ukraine, starting a war between these two countries.

This act of invasion caused many Ukrainians to flee their country and seek shelter in places like Poland, Hungary, Slovakia, etc…

At this time, we recommend no travel to Russia or Ukraine, or any neighboring countries for your own safety.

Russia : Safety by City

• Nizhny Novgorod
• Novosibirsk
• Saint Petersburg
• Yekaterinburg

Saint Petersburg is Russia’s second-largest city and one of the main reasons tourists go to visit Russia.

It is located on the Neva River, at the head of the Gulf of Finland on the Baltic Sea and founded by Tsar Peter the Great

It was called Saint Petersburg (Peter’s city) for a while, but in September 1914, its name was changed to Petrograd, then to Leningrad, and finally in 1991 back to Saint Petersburg.

It was also the capital of Russia for a while. This city is filled with history, but Saint Petersburg is also one of the most modern cities in Russia, apart from being its cultural capital.

It also has a couple of Unesco World Heritage Sites, like the Historic Centre of Saint Petersburg and Related Groups of Monuments.

And of course, don’t forget the Hermitage, one of the largest art museums in the world.

• Warnings & Dangers in Saint Petersburg

OVERALL RISK: MEDIUM

Generally speaking, Saint Petersburg today is safe as much as other countries in Europe, despite its problematic history with criminal activity in the 90s. However, if you’re planning on traveling to Saint Petersburg, keep in mind that you should always keep your guard up and remain aware of your surroundings, just in case.

TRANSPORT & TAXIS RISK: LOW

Generally speaking, transportation in Saint Petersburg is safe, but you should bear in mind that kidnappings have been known to happen, mostly in unlicensed taxis, so be careful when hailing one on the streets. Keep in mind that the most dangerous areas where small crime tends to occur are the underground walkways, called “perekhods”. Only use official services like Yandex Taxi, Uber or Gett taxi.

PICKPOCKETS RISK: HIGH

Pickpocketing is very common in Saint Petersburg, and surprisingly it is mostly performed by groups of children. Pay attention to your belongings, don’t leave them in plain sight and be especially careful in crowded places like stations or near tourist attractions.

NATURAL DISASTERS RISK: LOW

Saint Petersburg isn’t particularly susceptible to natural disasters. Some blizzards and snowstorms are possible during winter which can affect the traffic and delay your flights. During winter, be prepared to face the below-freezing temperatures.

MUGGING RISK: MEDIUM

The situation improved drastically when it comes to kidnappings and muggings. Generally, never accept free drinks or food when you’re in a club or a bar. Drink spiking and then attacking and robbing the victim have been reported on numerous occasions.

TERRORISM RISK: LOW

After the recent terrorist attack in the subway in St. Petersburg the probability of this situation happening again is high.

SCAMS RISK: HIGH

There are many scams in Saint Petersburg, usually performed by children trying to distract you and then steal some money from you. Never talk to strange kids on the street. Also, you should avoid playing street gambling games.

WOMEN TRAVELERS RISK: LOW

Women are generally safe in Saint Petersburg, though you should avoid finding yourself alone in clubs or bars, and of course, apply all normal precaution measures like avoiding remote and poorly lit streets and areas.

• So... How Safe Is Saint Petersburg Really?

Saint Petersburg, like the rest of Russia, experienced a rise when it came to crime rates during the 1990s.

Violent crime, as well as petty crime and scams, have increased, but the biggest part of the violence was within the criminal groups themselves, and it didn’t affect foreigners that much.

However, it decreased since the 90s, so right now, for tourists, major cities like Moscow and St. Petersburg aren’t more dangerous than any other European city, they’re even less so.

When it comes to authority officials, you should keep in mind that they usually don’t speak English, so be understanding if someone doesn’t know how to communicate with you.

Speaking about the officials, don’t ever try to bribe them: you will be charged with bribery.

Bear in mind that if you are a member of the LGBT community, there is no reason to avoid Saint Petersburg altogether but you should refrain from any public displays of affection.

As of June 2013, “homosexual propaganda to minors” is prohibited, which means that any discussion of gay rights or homosexuality issues in the presence of minors is punishable by law.

While you walk around Saint Petersburg, you might encounter police officials that may demand to see your papers to check if you have been registered within 7 business days of your arrival into Saint Petersburg.

You shouldn’t have any problems with this, because if you stay in a hotel then you are automatically registered and will be handed a confirmation paper.

• How Does Saint Petersburg Compare?
• Useful Information

Most countries do need a visa to enter Russia, and if you’re a U.S. citizen you must possess both a valid U.S. passport and a bona fide visa issued by a Russian Embassy or Consulate. None of the nationals that do need a visa can acquire one upon arrival, so make sure you apply for your visa in advance. If you are not sure about your visa status, visit www.doyouneedvisa.com which will let you know whether or not you need visa based on your nationality and the country you want to visit.

Russian ruble is the official currency in Saint Petersburg. ATMs are widespread throughout the country and credit cards are accepted everywhere.

Saint Petersburg has a highly continental influenced climate characterized by warm to hot and dry summers and extremely cold, freezing winters with temperatures as low as -30°C – sometimes even lower, with heavy snowfall.

Pulkovo Airport is an international airport serving Saint Petersburg, Russia. It consists of one terminal, Terminal 1 which is located 23 km south of the city center.

Travel Insurance

Just like anywhere else, we advise getting travel insurance when traveling to Saint Petersburg, because it would cover not only medical problems but also theft and loss of valuables.

5 Reviews on Saint Petersburg

Took a package tour serveral years ago from Finland through St P and down to Moscow by train. Probably the entire contingent of older Canadian tourists experienced multiple pickpocket incidents, including on crowded Metro cars. One person was sandwiched between two people in a subway turnstile who discretely picked their pocket. Another had a daypack slashed with a razor. Any interesting road scam was when the chartered tour bus (with Finnish plates) was hit by a Russian driver. After police arrived, the hat was passed on the bus to pay the “fine” and settle up with police & driver.

St. Petersburg is one of the safest cities in Russia.

I note the subtle anti Russia statements at the introduction.. Russia’s security concerns are in fact genuine. NATO expansion eastward is seen by Russians as directed against their country. Putin has been clear for many years that if continued, the expansion would likely be met with serious resistance by the Russians, even with military action. The Ukraine military had killed almost 15000 Russian speaking Ukrainians in the east in the lead up to the invasion. No complaints from the west. The usa has been looking forward to this war and preparing Ukraine for many years to fight as their proxy. Problem is that the usa is losing and will ultimately lose. Yet again.

Street scams? I’m a Brit in Saint Petersburg, 12 years, and I’ve NEVER seen any street scams. Yes, there are pickpockets, but nothing like those in Italy or Spain. The above review about a bag being slashed sounds brutal and violent. The tactic is never confrontational and is just a way to enter your bag without you knowing. Again, it’s used in other European countries.

My advice is simple – keep your passport etc. in your hotel room and take photos of your passport, visa, migration card and registration. Keep your wallet in a zipped pocket and remove it if you ever leave your coat. It’s common to hang up your coat etc. in cafes and bars, and common sense should tell you to remove valuables. I’m more cautious in the UK, to be honest.

Guys, avoid girls who want to take you to a bar that seems empty but has a lot of staff. These girls are paid to bring you there, have a few drinks, then when you get the bill, drinks cost about £30 a piece. Only enter bars that have a lot of other people, a mixture of different people.

I recommend that you download Yandex Go, a taxi app, and Yandex Maps, Yandex Metro, and Yandex Eda (food delivery).

Hi Brit, what is it like right now (Feb 2023) for travel ? I want to visit for 4 days. Thanks
