Nevsky Prospect is St. Petersburg’s main avenue and one
of the best-known streets in Russia. Cutting through the historical center
of the city, it runs from the Admiralty to the Moscow Railway Station and
then, after a slight kink, to the Alexander Nevsky Monastery. In the very
first days of St. Petersburg it was simply the beginning of the road to the
ancient city of Novgorod, but it quickly became adorned with beautiful buildings,
squares and bridges and became the very center of the bustling, rapidly growing
city.
