It is a very big place and the church is very beautiful. I am very impressed to have visited Russia. 👍🏻

It was 10 years ago. I was like any working-class repeating the same boring days as usual. Then the bloody church just kept occupying my mind. I decided to go there on Christmas in 2014. I really loved my decision. Russia is a must-visit country. The economy was bad in 2014, but that is good for tourist. I had few days meeting my Turkish lover in Santa Petersburg. I almost lost in the morning when I was looking for our rented apartment. Just a glance, he showed again in my vision again with a naughty smile that seems like laughing “Silly, I am hiding here .” I had great time. Russia is so beautiful at night, people like singing, and dancing. Beautiful women were wearing stockings in winter.
