Answer 1

Hello, Christine!
I'm glad to write you about Saint Petersburg. I think that it's a good idea to choose a language school in Saint Petersburg, because there are many excellent language schools there. I recommended you to see many beautiful and interesting places in St. Petersburg. Among them are the Summer Garden with its famous railing, the Hermitage, the Kazan Cathedral, the Russian Museum, the Rostral Columns, the Alexander Nevski Monastery, the Alexander Column, the Palace Square, the Triumphal Arch, the Admiralty, the Field of Mars, etc. July is the warmest month in St. Petersburg, but also the rainiest. Temperatures vary between 14°C and 30°C with many hot days when it’s 25°C and over. Daylight hours begin to decrease slowly, but still the evenings are “white”. The water temperature in the Neva rises to 16°C. You will probably want to hude under the shade of trees in one of St. Petersburg’s gardens.
