The Kazan Cathedral is an outstanding example of the early 19th-centuryRussian architecture, erected on the site of a small stone church to hold the ancient icon of Our Lady of Kazan. The Kazan Cathedral encircles a small square with a double row of beautiful columns - an impressive colonnade. It took
10 years to construct this church (architect Voronikhin).

The story of Rasputin's murder unfolds here! On a quiet stretch of the Moika River stands a long yellow building, which was once the residence of the wealthy and respected Yusupov family and which saw one of the most dramatic episodes in Russia's history - the murder of Grigory Rasputin. In 1916 a group of the city's noble elite, including one of the Grand Dukes and led by the prominent anglophile Prince Felix Yusupov, conspired to kill the one man who they felt threatened the stability of an already war-torn Russian
Empire.

This marvelous Old Russian-style church was built on the spot where Emperor Alexander 11 was assassinated on March 1, 1881. Built in 1883-1907, the church was designed in the spirit of sixteenth and seventeenth century Russian architecture, inspired particularly by St. Basil's Cathedral on
Red Square in Moscow.

St. Isaac's Cathedral was originally the city's main church and the largest cathedral in Russia. It was built between 1818 and 1858, by the French-born architect Auguste Montferrand, to be one of the most impressive landmarks of the Russian Imperial capital. One hundred and eighty years later the gilded dome of St. Isaac's still dominates the skyline of St. Petersburg. Although the cathedral is considerably smaller than the newly rebuilt Church of Christ the Savior in Moscow,
it boasts much more impressive fades and interiors.

The Cathedral of SS Peter & Paul (1712-1733), with its landmark needle-thin spire, magnificent Baroque interior and burial site for most of the pre-Revolutionary Russian leaders, is well worth seeing. SS Peter & Paul Cathedral is the oldest church in St. Petersburg. It is also the tallest building in the Northern Capital (excluding the TV tower). Work began on the first wooden church on this site about a month after the founding of the city on July 29, 1703, according to C. Schultz in his book St. Petersburg Churches. Construction was completed in 1704, and the new church was
consecrated on April 1, 1704.

A new perspective on the city can be gained from waterlevel and the boat trips visit some areas of the city that might not be reached on ground. There are trips with interesting route in the historical part of the city. From the very outset the city was built on water, on numerous islands in delta of Neva River. The combination of the architecture and water in St. Petersburg, as well as in Venice, has a special charm. Wide full-flowing Neva is conceived as the main prospectus of the city along which majestic palaces, temples, gardens,
monuments are stretched.

An alternative Seven Wonders of the World could easily be unearthed on Russia's territory, if only tourists were willing
to dig them out.

Chicago is the nation's second largest city, the most important Great Lakes port, and the world's largest railroad terminal. The booming industry of the city attracted immigrants from all over the world. The skyscrapers were Chicago's contribution to American architecture. The first skyscraper, designed by William Jenney, was built here in 1883. The city's impressive skyline is still expending. Among the newest buildings are the 50-storey Civic Center and Marina Towers
Apartments.
