Russia: Photos From St. Pete and Vyborg

Megan Case posts more pictures of St. Petersburg, and of Vyborg, and writes this about her trip to this formerly Finnish town: “…while St. Petersburg has been getting cleaner and shinier and better by leaps and bounds, Vyborg still looks dirty and run-down. I can’t really understand it, since that place gets tons of tourism, both domestic and international – and a lot of Finnish euros go there. They have a lot of really special architecture and it’s just going to hell. With a bit of paint, it could really be a historical fantasy village.”
