Summer is a special time for families with children. Someone goes to the dacha, someone to the sea, and someone to the cultural capital of Russia - St. Petersburg. Top 5 places for summer vacations with children in St. Petersburg.
Instructions
Step 1
Museum of Electric Transport of St. Petersburg. This is a great place to look at the round-eyed retro trams from the turn of the century, sit in antique wooden seats, pull the cord of an electric bell, and stand on the footboard. You can also see rare models of Soviet-era trolleybuses and, for an additional fee, ride a wooden tram.
Step 2
The Railway Museum is the largest open-air museum in Europe. Any boy will love steam locomotives built in the nineteenth century, huge platforms for military equipment and small neat wagons from the pre-revolutionary period. Tours are conducted daily and are very interesting and informative.
Step 3
A ride on an aquabus is not only an easy way to get from one area of the city to another, but also a small water trip, especially for children. The ride is not as long as the tedious river and canal excursions, the speedboat reaches a fairly high speed, and the wind and splashes in the face are popular with most young adventurers. An added bonus to the aquabus ride is that the marinas are close to attractions.
Step 4
Museum "Grand Model Russia" is open not only in summer, but if you come to St. Petersburg on vacation, do not miss this place. A huge territory was given over to the model of Russia, which includes not only landscapes, but also figures of people, moving vehicles, changing the time of day and season. On the day of visiting the Grand Model, it is better not to plan other things, because it will take at least three hours to consider everything together with the child. For those who are tired and hungry, the museum has a large cafeteria with a play area.
Step 5
For those children and adults who want an active summer pastime, the "Divo Ostrov" amusement park is ideal. Arriving here, you will find any kind of entertainment from completely safe for young children, to extreme ones - for teenagers and adults. In addition, the Yelagin Ostrov Central Park is located nearby, where you can relax on a well-groomed lawn, ride rollerblades and scooters on special paths and ride a rented boat along the park's ponds.
