Petrozavodsk- the capital of Karelia

Petrozavodsk- the capital of Karelia

I was born here and i like it very much. Petrozavodsk is of the same age as St.Peterburg and was also founded by Peter the First, so they are like brothers. Not long ago our cities had a 300-years celebration..:)
The town is not so big- about 300 thousand citizens, but it attracts many tourists from everywhere.May be the thing is in the location : P.is situated on the Onega Lake coast - one of the largest and beautiful lakes of Europe.It creates an unforgettable athmosphere here,especially in summer,when the town becomes very cosy and green. And dont forget about the charming of the white nights also ! At this time P.is an ideal place for romantical walks ....;)

 This looks a lovely town, though I don't fancy the "ice" swimming!!

 Hmm, Bortsch-suppe finde ich auch sehr gut, und die Flecken auf dem Hemd halten garantiert die ganze Sommersaison ! Dieses neue Hotel wird wohl wieder relativ teuer werden !
