Aranza Obscura RTGAmbassador As we cruised through the city of palaces, we stopped by the cabin of Peter the Great; it was the first residential building built in St. Petersburg, and it housed the tsar from 1703-1708. This city is now one of the only European cities that has been able to maintain its first building. The preservation of the city allows it to be a mecca for cultural and historical landmarks. Keeping land sites such as the St. Nicholas Naval Cathedral intact since the 18th century allows for society to get a feel and really comprehend the background of the city and the vast impact history has had on it. Moreover, St. Petersburg embodies the importance of rich history. I?ve been inspired. There is so much to learn. A city that embraces its history and preserves its antiquity only gives future generations a chance to truly understand the ways in which our world has evolved. My eyes (and camera lens) experienced surreal moments throughout this tour of beautiful, colorful, inspirational St. Petersburg. With Russia as my first international trip, I knew I was bound to experience something enlightening that would expose my hidden interests and give me a reason to become an even more inquisitive individual. I was also in search of an experience providing an immense amount of cultural knowledge That was exactly what the tour of St. Petersburg gave me.
