Moscow
& St. Petersburg: Russia's Heart and Soul, Second Edition
by Masha Nordbye
Book Description: As the symbolic heart of Russia, Moscow, which
recently celebrated its 850th anniversary, has enjoyed a renaissance as
one of the world's great cities. The capital's once somber streets now
buzz 24 hours a day with purposeful activity, and joint ventures between
east and west have already opened plush new hotels, internationally-stocked
shops, and well over 1,000 eating establishments. Her sister-city, St.
Petersburg, host of Russia's Golden Age and cradle of revolution, and surely
Russia's soul, celebrates its 300th anniversary in 2003. One of the most
graceful and well-proportioned cities in the world, filled with baroque
and classical architecture, intersected by canals, it is easy to see how
St. Petersburg became the inspiration for musicians, artists and writers
such as Rimsky-Korsakov, Pushkin and Dostoevsky.
This book contains a wealth of information on the two cities and the
regions surrounding them: fully updated histories and cultural connections
of the cities, information on finding accommodation, shopping and restaurants,
details of museums, architectural landmarks and theatre and comprehensive
tours of each city. Also included is an indispensable guide to the Golden
Ring, a series of ancient Russian towns set in the stunning countryside
around Moscow.
• Second edition of a best-selling guide with detailed
cultural, historical, religious and political studies of these fascinating
cities • An itinerary to the Golden Ring of ancient Russian
towns surrounding Moscow • Indispensable facts and practical
information for the traveler • Literary excerpts from
writers such as Alexandre Dumas, Alexander Pushkin and Fyodor Dostoevsky
• Special topics include essays on the Russian Circus,
the Trans-Siberian Railroad, Catherine the Great and the Siege of Leningrad
• This edition coincides with the 300th anniversary celebrations
of the founding of St. Petersburg • 126 color photos
• 16 easy-to-use maps and plans
