"Feel Yourself Russian"

Even during our brief visits to foreign countries we are looking for the opportunity of experiencing different culture. Moreover, there are even "obligatory" sights of visiting such as Eifel Tower in Paris, Big Ben and Tower in London.

Now imagine yourself in St.Petersburg - the most "European" of all Russian cities.

How to get acquaintance with the unique culture of this country? What shall a foreign visitor do, if his time in St.Petersburg is limited, and he would like to try so many different things - ranging from national cuisine - to "mysterious Russian heart"?

Is there any chance for a foreigner to feel himself Russian?

Our answer is YES! This is a unique opportunity - folk show "Feel Yourself Russian" at the Nikolaevsky Palace!
