By Pictolic https://pictolic.com/article/winter-st-petersburg-is-not-as-scary-as-it-is-painted.htmlResidents of the city walking along the frozen Neva River, the futuristic St. Petersburg stadium and towers taken from a bird's-eye view, cozy canals against the background of a colorful dawn and the festive atmosphere of the city — all this is in the best photos taken last winter.
After viewing these pictures, you will regret that you did not spend at least a few days in St. Petersburg this winter.
