Chained in marble. To St. Petersburg for 5 days

We invite you to get acquainted with the greatness of the unique appearance of St. Petersburg, which owes much to the abundance of decorating marble and granite. The marble facades of St. Isaac's Cathedral and the granite embankments of the Neva River, the marble of the grand staircase of the Winter Palace, and the world's largest monolith of the Alexander Column. 

But the history of the marble itself is no less interesting, so the tour includes an excursion to one of the most famous quarries located in Karelia, in the Ruskeala Mountain Park.
