Penates, I. Y. Repin's Estate Museum

Reviewed By stevepwwii - Tromso, Norway

Penates is a great place. We got into Repin after visiting Art museum in Moscow and wanted to see his private mansion in St Petersburg. Our guide suggested we go there. We have never regretted it, it is a short drive (approx 45 minutes from our hotel) away and the place is absolutely empty - no crowds, nothing. Pine trees everywhere, almost by the ocean. Come see this place if you come to St Petersburg

Zelenogorsk Recreation Park

Reviewed By GrayDog2019 - St. Petersburg, Russia

This park is located on the shore of the sea bay. It is not big, but it is very cozy. There are a lot of greenery, interesting original sculptures, attractions. It's very good to walk and meditate.

Monument to the Actor Georgiy Vitsin

Reviewed By sergeyk147

His name will hardly say anything to a foreigner but practically every Russian knows him for the roles he played in immensely popular Soviet films. Yes, he was born in this town though at that time its name was Terijoki (communists renamed it in 1948). In Finnish it meant "a tar river", in Russian it does "a town of green hills". This small monument faces a mammoth statue of Vladimir Lenin across the street. People's darling Vitsin welcomes him by lifting his hat. Communist leader threatens him with his fist in return (my interpretation). But who is scared of the guy today?

V. Lenin's Tent Museum

Reviewed By sergeyk147

Me and my wife remember Soviet times very well and so decided to visit this place which in the days of our youth was Mecca for communist pilgrims. We, on the contrary, had never been there. Just for foreigners - Pazliv is a small village near St Petersburg where in July-October 1917 future communist dictator Vladimir Lenin escaped from Russian authorities that wanted him as a German spy. He spent those months mostly in a hay tent at the seaside edge of the forest. Today this reconstructed hay doodah looks more like a rear a big hairy dog with his/her tail up than like a great revolutionary's hideaway. But a small museum is really nice and shows bumpy events of that year as it should - in a calm and balanced way. Lenin is presented as just one of many players on that stage, not as a genius but rather as a master of sophisticated intrigue. Such approach is still not predominant in Russia so I can't but say bravo to the people who practice it here. We also loved part of the exposition which described everyday life in St Petersburg before and after both February and October revolutions. Not many people even in Russia know today that on the night communists were catching power theatres and restaurants were open and people could hardly imagine what a gory mess was encroaching upon them. There's a small souvenir shop inside and one can also take a stroll through a park facing the Gulf of Finland. Just bear in mind that there will be no chance even to drink a cup of tea of coffee there not to mention chewing a crust of bread (at least we found nothing). Maybe the management wants you to feel like an ordinary Soviet citizen in the era of total deficit?
