St Isaac's Cathedral

St Isaac's Cathedral in Russia

Adjacent to the Winter Palace is the gilded spire of the Admiralty a good landmark to use when you're out and about. This Empire style classical building houses a naval college and is replete with trumpeting angels, oversized statues and fountains. Another building which dominates the skyline is the golden-domed St Isaac's Cathedral, which provides fine views from the supporting colonnade.
