Saint Isaac's Cathedral

Angela has posted a doc:

Saint Isaac's Cathedral or Isaakievskiy Sobor (Russian: Исаа́киевский Собо́р) in Saint Petersburg, Russia is the largest cathedral (sobor) in the city and was the largest church in Russia when it was built (101.5 meters high).

The Bronze Horseman (Russian: Медный всадник, literally "The Copper Horseman") is an equestrian statue of Peter the Great by Étienne Maurice Falconet in Saint Petersburg, Russia. It is also the name of a narrative poem written by Aleksandr Pushkin about the statue in 1833, widely considered to be one of the most significant works of Russian literature. The statue came to be known as the Bronze Horseman because of the great influence of the poem. The statue is now one of the symbols of Saint Petersburg, in much the same way that the Statue of Liberty is a symbol of New York City.

As this picture was taken at 4 in the morning, I don't remember anything about this place. The only thing I remember is the damn cold and sleepiness, but I guess the picture is worth that...

Адмиралтейская церковь

nobody@ipernity.com (Angela) — Mon, 09 Jun 2008 06:02:19 +0000

Angela has posted a doc:

Voronezh has got a lot of churches, and this (Admiralteyskaya) is the oldest one (about 1699-1703, the time when Peter the Great built in Voronezh the first Russian navy. Actually Voronezh locates far away from sea, but there were special pines suitable for ships here).
Now this church is being reconstructed.
