The Moika river runs along part of old historic St. Petersburg and leads out to the Neva river. Along the way are former palaces, churches, cathedrals, and monuments. Our starting point was near the Yusopov Palace, the site where Rasputin was poisoned, blugeoned, and then finally taken away to be dumped in the Neva river.




As you cruise along the canal, there are plenty of bridges and old city structures to view.

Heading out to the Neva river, the palaces get much larger and grander in scale!

  1. Great photos! They are much better than my boring Devil's Postpile and Lake Tahoe pictures. I see that you have learned how to intermix text with the photos - nice touch.
