We’ll tell you in the article which area in the center to choose.
Admiralteysky
Historically, the Admiralteysky district, where the Express Sadovaya hotel is located, arose along with the founding of the city. The first shipyard was founded here, and in the future the area was inhabited by merchants and nobles. Noble estates, theaters and government institutions were actively built on its territory.
The Admiralteysky district is where most of the city's popular locations are concentrated: the Admiralty, the Bronze Horseman, the Mariinsky Theater, St. Isaac's Cathedral, New Holland and much more.
Today, the Admiralteysky district has developed modern infrastructure. There are large shopping centers and hotels here, making this area one of the popular places for living and recreation.
Central
The neighbor of the Admiralteysky district is Central. It is famous among tourists for Nevsky Prospekt, the Hermitage, the Savior on Spilled Blood, Mikhailovsky Castle and many beautiful parks.
The central district in St. Petersburg is the heart of the city, combining historical heritage, cultural riches and modern amenities. People come here for the beautiful sights, shopping and business centers, souvenir shops, as well as bars and clubs.
The Central District has a varied number of hotels, hostels and apartments. However, prices for accommodation here can be inflated, regardless of the season of the year and the demand for housing.
Vasilyevsky Island
On the other bank of the Bolshaya Neva there is another historically significant district of St. Petersburg - Vasilievsky Island or affectionately “Vaska”.
Vasilyevsky Island was developed long before the construction of St. Petersburg. In the 16th century, fishermen lived on these lands. They were engaged not only in fishing, but also developed agriculture.
In different historical periods, the island was an important center of trade and trade routes, and later became one of the centers of education and science in St. Petersburg. People come to Vaska to go to Erarta, take a walk in the Sevkabel port area and take some memorable photos at the Spit of Vasilyevsky Island.
Petrogradsky
The Petrogradsky district in St. Petersburg is one of the most historical and unique areas of the city. Over the centuries, it has undergone many transformations and today represents a combination of historical heritage, cultural attractions, educational institutions and modern life.
The history of the area dates back to the reign of Peter the Great, when active construction work and the formation of the future capital began here. As the city developed, the area became a center of industrial and cultural development, while maintaining its historical charm.
Petrogradka begins from Zayachy Island, where the Peter and Paul Fortress and the Cathedral are located. People also come here to see the House of Peter I and the Cruiser “Aurora”, visit various museums of the city’s history and just stroll along the beautiful streets.
