more... There are guided tours

exhousting experience. First

| Blini stands
All over town
There are Blini stands all over
town, try Samovar, on Ulitsa
Gorokhovaya 27, that is a good
one. Most of them don't speak
English but that doesn't matter,
just point to what you want to
try. No stay in St Petersburg is
complete without eating a Blini!

| Griboedov
Voronezskaya Ul. 2
You never know what to
expect on weekdays at the
Griboedov, poetry reading,
live reggae or a DJ spinning
psychedelic trance.
The club is actually two, one
above ground, Griboedov Hill
and one is below, in an old
underground bomb shelter.
