Petrograd Side. From the Bastions of the Fortress to the Kamchatka Boiler Room

Petrograd Side. From the Bastions of the Fortress to the Kamchatka Boiler Room

The Petrograd Side — the cradle of Saint Petersburg, where the history of the great city began with the first drawings of Peter I.
This area preserves the living memory of three centuries: from wooden buildings and the first apartment houses... to northern modernism and industrial architecture of the 20th century.
Here, under the linden trees, mansions of aristocrats coexist with factory buildings and experimental constructions of the avant-garde.
This book is not just a guide. It is an invitation to view Petersburg differently: to stroll through the streets that usually remain off the tourist routes, to feel the pulse of the city outside the hustle and bustle, and to discover the "Northern Venice" from an unexpected, almost intimate side.
For those who want to know the city deeper — not through the eyes of a tour guide but through the heart of a local resident.
