A must see when visiting the beautiful city of Volgograd, this museum as well as being informative is so beautiful inside it's a monument to the sacrifice here all in itself. We spent 2 hours but you could easily spend more time, the audio guide is a must. I knew a little about the battle and heroism of Stalingrad but this museum really helped cement some of that knowledge. The panorama painting where the model runs into the artistic masterpiece is very moving, it's suspended in time where events at different periods of the battle converge. Will never forget it.

As well as being a lovely city to holiday in, see the historical sights and remember their sacrifice, Volgograd has an exceptional restaurant and bar scene and this place was a real highlight of our trip. Our guides brought us here for a farewell dinner and it's fantastic. Great Russian cuisine, Russian champagne, exquisite service. Made for a memorable evening on our last day in this charming city.

Our local tour guide told us to pop in here as we said we love Russian craft beer. They even have beers from near my hometown in Scotland but of course for us the Russian beers are the best. Serves great food, super friendly team, great service and happy ambience all right in the centre of this lovely welcoming city. Loved it.

We love the Russian interpretation of a British pub. Great beer and service and cool decoration without the slumminess of the original British version. We tried Wise Queen; the Russian craft beers really are just the best after a long day of sightseeing.

We found this place many years ago whilst visiting the New Art Gallery upstairs. So when back in the city we popped in. The gallery alas was closed but Ketch Up was open! Great place with very friendly service. Loved the food and especially loved the Russian beer. Really glad we made another visit.

We have been here almost every visit to beautiful St Petersburg and love it. We came to see The Magic Flute most recently. A simply stunning production! Sets, costumes, music, comfortable seats and view of the stage. Like no other place. Exceptional experience.

This restaurant is great! Really charming place with a warm and hearty welcome. Chef Marusia is a real character! It's set on the English Embankment in a lovely historic building. We just adore Sakartvelo food and wine and the desserts are simply to die for. It's really handy for the St Petersburg Chamber Opera. We had an opera booked so couldn't spend as long here as we'd like but will certainly come again when we make it back to this beautiful city.

We took a stroll here and it's a lovely monastery with beautiful gardens and a very peaceful place. We also visited the cemetery which is immaculately preserved.

Hadn't used this airport before, usually it's been Domodevo but it's efficient, smoothly organised and some great duty free shops, especially ones at the far end of the terminal with Russian souvenirs and vodkas.

Stayed here on our way home from the Silk Road, it's a great hotel right in the centre of the city. We opted for the older rooms which were a bargain but it does have some lush new suites and rooms. Breakfast was excellent and they have a cool little bar at the top for views, cheap beer! I'd like to say here again.
