By right, St. Petersburg is considered one of the most beautiful cities in the world. The cultural capital of our vast country demonstrates the Russian spirit and aesthetics of the times of Peter the Great. Surprisingly, the city, built on swamps in a matter of years, has retained its original appearance. Canals and avenues, squares and narrow streets, palaces and cathedrals - all this perfectly conveys the atmosphere of the XVIII-XIX centuries. Plunging into it, it seems that time seems to have stopped.
Northern Avenue is one of the main highways of the city, which runs through the territories of Vyborg and Kalinin districts. Its length is about 7 kilometers. The Northern Avenue was formed in 1975 with the unification of the City Lane, the road to Ozerki and the New Highway. The area, which was formed at the intersection of two streets, became known as Severnaya. The avenue connecting Engels and Rustavelli streets offers us a view of
Murinsky Park and the bridge that was thrown over the stream of the same name.
Northern Avenue is part of one of the largest areas of the cultural capital - Vyborg. Its area is almost 12 thousand hectares. The population of the district is equal to the size of a small provincial town. According to one of the latest
censuses, about 266 thousand people live here. This territorial-administrative unit was founded in 1718. There are many attractions, about 40 squares and 16 boulevards,
Shuvalovsky Park, 7 lakes and several ponds. Five rivers flow throughout the district, but vacationers from St. Petersburg and other cities come to the famous
Suzdal lakes.The large and actively developing Vyborg region, of which the Northern Avenue is an integral part, is famous not only for its landscapes, but also for municipal institutions. Far enough from the center, but not located on the outskirts of the city, it attracts the attention of Petersburgers as an area where you can comfortably live with your family. All municipal institutions (hospitals, polyclinics, schools) work at the proper level for the big city. The administration takes care of its residents and responds to their requests and comments.
The northern regions of St. Petersburg are sleeping and are not famous for their cultural attractions. If you are a tourist, then be sure to go to the north of the city without special need. Here you will not find architectural ensembles, you will not see outlandish temples and churches. You will find all the main cultural monuments in the Admiralteysky and Central districts, which are the entire historical component of the most beautiful northern capital. Gray panel high-rise buildings, kindergartens and schools, grocery stores - all this is in your city. The Northern Avenue of St. Petersburg, as part of the territory on which not the richest Petersburgers live, connects historical centers and areas that were landscaped in the Soviet era. He will delight you with beautiful buildings, will let you enjoy the indescribable atmosphere of North Palmyra.
