THE SECOND LIFE OF HISTORICAL MONUMENTS NEAR ST. P

St. Petersburg/Leningrad region. TERMINAL: Pulkovo International Airport. It is located about 17 km from the St.Petersburg center. We know that some of the volunteers have problems with the high cost of tickets to Saint Petersburg. We would like to recommend them to find economy flights not to St. Petersburg, but to Riga or Helsinki or other Finland city. It is a very short way from Riga or Helsinki to our city not only by plane, but also by bus or train.LEISURE TIME: St-Petersburg is a cultural capital of Russia. Volunteers will have an opportunity to visit numerous museums, theatres, galleries and exhibitions, country residences of Emperors, Grand Princes and grandees: Peterhof i city of fountains (www.peterhofmuseum.ru), Lomonosov, Tsarskoye Selo (www.tzar.ru), Pavlovsk (www.pavlovskmuseum.ru) and just restored palace in Gatchina. Also at this time of the year, the city hosts a variety of festivals, concerts and folk events. Each year millions of tourists come to St.Petersburg for walking at night along the Neva River, watching the bridges raise. Meeting with local people and evenings of international cuisine will be organized, so it would be great if volunteers will share their traditional recipes and food. A group of international volunteers in cooperation with local youth will prepare a performance for promote the WH site. Volunteers will participate in the historical reconstruction of the events of the 18-19th centuries. It might be the mysterious fortunes of famous persons.
