Palace Embankment

Unlike nearby Gostinyy Dvor, Palace
Embankment contains very little in the way
of shops and restaurants. Dominated
instead by the symbols of Imperial,
pre-revolutionary Russia, this is a
particularly elegant area of the city.
It showcases the splendour of the
Winter Palace – the former residence
of the tsars, now part of the stunning
Hermitage – as well as the colossal
St Isaac’s Cathedral and the
embodi ment of imperial strength
that is the Bronze Horseman statue.
A stroll here highlights the sheer
weight of history contained in this
The Bronze Horseman city of just under five million people.
