The Bronze Horseman
File this one as "it looks better in person than in the photo". But driving past this statue last night it really is impressive. This is a tribute to Peter the Great from the Empress Catherine. The horse is stepping on a snake (squiggles on the rock) as Peter conquers all. The statue is located in Senatskaia Square, the park right by St. Issac's Cathedral.
