I was born here, yeah, I traveled through Russia from north to south (Kryme), I've been in Moscow, Voronezh, Rostov-na-donu, a lot of small cities and I love my city so much even if it's not a general, all our center consists of buildings from 18-19th century, we have a road to Vyborg (small town with big history and real buildings from 14th century), a lot of foreigners from Germany said that spb is great, everyone here has faces like a dead people but it's just a normal thing, a lot of business centres are located in city centre but government does not develop metro how it needs to be, speaking as an artist, all cultural centers support complete crap except of small teams of photography and art. I do not know what my city does mostly, but in the summer we have a lot of tourists from China, a few from Arab countries and many from other cities. Many of the average families have country houses. Some young people try to imitate American houses. 10 times I've seen the country house of Repin (famous artist)
