First stop of the day- Winter Palace/ Heritage Museum
There will be free entrance for students.
For us, we are spilt into two groups and have a guide to bring us around. 

Definitely useful to have a guide because the whole place is very big and crowded.
The guide will focus on the important things and you can understand better. 

Russia palaces is definitely super impressive and grand. 

After visiting Russia's palaces, nothing else can beat how nice they were.
Most of the palace is built by gold and they just look very classy and grand...

View outside of the Winter Palace

Huge space right outside the winter palace.

Lunch time over at a western place- squid ink pasta.
Food over in St.Petersburg is really affordable as compared to Helsinki. 

It was also super cold that day. 

Decided to try the cakes for desserts because they look so yummy.
CEBEP- Cafe chain in Russia

At night, we signed up for traditional Russian Dinner.
It was a 4 course meal and it was indeed yummy with nice ambience. 

It cost: $30.00 Euros
Indeed, it was expensive considered that the cost of living in Russia is quite low. 

But for the experience that we are getting, and the traditional performance, it is worth it. 

Traditional performance that includes singing/dancing and interactions with the guests.
It was so enjoyable and we all had a great time. 

Ended the day with a full tum tum(:
