RUSSIA DAY 2
02.56 pm / travelling
On Friday, our second day in Saint Petersburg, we saw quite a lot, and luckily we had a bus so we didn't have to walk as much as the day before. We started the day by going to a school, where there was a museum that had to do with our home town. We also got to see more of the school, the classrooms and some students, and know a little more about the school and the shool system in Russia.
Afterwards we visited the Monument to the Heroic Defenders of Leningrad, and the Piskarevskoye Memorial Cemetery. The cemetery was definitely an interesting experience. It was so huge, and there was even music playing everywhere to "set the mood".
We also went to the Peter and Paul Fortress, and the Summer Garden, which we actually weren't supposed to go to at first. Before dinner we visited the Church of St. Panteleimon, but we weren't allowed to take pictures inside (and I forgot to take a picture from the outside).
