Water and stone … — these two elements which merged together create unique beauty of Sankt-Ptersburg. The documentary and art photostory, with two hundred color photos, is “business card” at the first acquaintance to the Great City. It acquaints the reader not only with man-made beauty of the Northern Capital of Great Russia, but also opens very difficult history of emergence of the city, its value for the country and — the main thing! — opens wide soul of the Great Child of Peter.
