Water excursion along the canals of St. Petersburg (Fontanka and Coffee House)

in blurt-177869 •  5 months ago 

Last summer my family and I traveled around the country a little. I took a lot of photos on this trip. And I want to share them.

Our pleasure boat was heading upstream the Fontanka River. Here I took a photo of the river and its embankment from the other side. In the beautiful building on the right, above which the Russian flag is raised, is the city court. On the contrary, on the left side of the photo you can see the trees of the Summer Garden. There. The yellow walls of the Coffee House are barely visible between the trees.

I also photographed the coffee house. It is in the second photo. This is an architectural monument that is about 200 years old. Now there are exhibitions of urban artists here. The original purpose of this pavilion is also not related to coffee. I managed to find information that once an Italian opened a coffee shop here. But I didn’t find out in what year or how long it lasted.

Below under the photo I have added a map of our route. On the map I marked the approximate points from where I took the photographs shown in my previous posts and in this post.

And below I have added a gif in which you can see several photos from my previous posts in this series.


I strongly recommend to open the photo in a separate tab to appreciate it.
