People often say that St Petersburg is the 'Venice of the North'. This is because it is a beautiful city with 90 waterways, 42 islands and 300 bridges. Every summer from June until July something wonderful happens in St. Petersburg. It is a wonder of nature that Russians call the 'White Nights'.
Visitors from all over the world travel to the city to see this. During the White Nights the sun does not set completely and a silver glow fills the sky. This sight attracts tourists and locals who take to the streets to enjoy it and celebrate.
At night, crowds of people sing and dance by the Neva River. They watch the bridges open as boats pass by and fireworks fill the sky. A visit to St Petersburg during that time is a fantastic experience.
The White Nights are certainly a beautiful sight. Write to us about any other interesting event you know about. The best articles get to appear in the next two issues of “Welcome to Russia”.
