My trip to Saint Petersburg was truly special. Because of the sanction against Russia’s invasion to Ukraine, the currency in Russia has become at least 40% weaker since 2015. So it was a good time to visit Saint Petersburg in terms of price. And Saint Petersburg as a city has a lot to offer. It is romantic (yes!), historical, glamorous, and grand.
