St Petersburg

Saint Petersburg is a city and a federal subject (a federal city) of Russia located on the Neva River at the head of the Gulf of Finland on the Baltic Sea. In Russian literature, informal documents and discourse, the word "Saint" is usually omitted, leaving "Petersburg". The city is often described as the most Westernized city of Russia, as well as its cultural capital. It is the northernmost city in the world with a population of over one million. The Historic Centre of Saint Petersburg and Related Groups of Monuments constitute a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The city is home to The Hermitage, one of the largest art museums in the world. A large number of foreign consulates, international corporations, banks, and businesses have offices in Saint Petersburg.

Talking of churches, Church of the Savior on the Blood is said to be the most beautiful church in St. Petersburg. Built of beautiful mosaic and stonework, the church gives you an indication of how ancient Russia looked like. The church is built at an equally historic spot. This is where Tsar Alexander II was assassinated in the year 1881.


Thank you to Leona for everything you did for our daughters wedding!

I would like to thank Leona Hannon for her services she provided for my daughter’s wedding in Jamaica in April-2013. Leona went over and above my expectations with her professional attitude and diligent approach in all areas. Leona did in fact treat our group not as a client but like a family member, which made the bride more relaxed, and me the mother of the bride off the hook lol.   I would recommend Leona’s services to my family and friends in the near future. Cheers Sandy Russell
