Things to do in St. Petersburg after the races (event)
In St. Petersburg cultural life never stops for a minute throughout the year. In late August – early September theater and concert seasons open in the city, museums display new showpieces and youth entertaining subculture hurries back from their summer suburban platforms within the city walls of nightclubs. On days when summer meets autumn the participants of the Championship will have a chance to spend all their free time successfully for both body and soul.
When you return home to your country, city and families after the competition, your relatives will ask you what you have seen except the race course and the club bar in the second largest and significant city in Russia, the former capital of the Russian Empire? In St. Petersburg we strongly recommend you to visit its main theaters and museums – or you are sure to make a great mistake. Russian ballet and the Hermitage are an absolute “must” to be seen. And herewith we would like to introduce you to these landmarks of St.Petersburg.

Finally on the edge of time limit the race committee sent the fleet on the water.
