here is a great place for walking,relaxing,eating,watching the river or newly wed couples.I was here at least for 2 times and stayed somewhere for 2-3 hours and watching exceptionally beautiful surrounding.Consider that ,this place is so beautiful that newly wedding couples come to take their wedding party photos.

A must see. Take a tour or walk. Very busy but beautiful views. Can get very busy with buses parked during day so go in evening or late afternoon.

It's really romantic to walk along during the white nights in August, taking in the view and gardens along the way. There are boat trips you can take, which are very good too.

Unlike other reviewed "attractions" such as Palace Square and Neva Embankments, the Strelka truly is a sight to behold as it has the beautiful "rostr" columns on it and if you were to pick one viewing point of the city, this would be it!

It was Saturday, early afternoon, we were on our way to Strelka when a heavy downpour had us sheltering in the building opposite this area. Looking from across the road I was wondering what the big deal was about Strelka. We went over and wandered to the waterside just in time to see a couple celebrate their wedding with photos, a celebratory glass of bubbles then threw the glasses at a large round granite sphere! Someone was one hand to clear up the glass and there was also someone providing music with a horn and tambourine, to which the bridal party did a little dance. We watched at least half a dozen similar scenarios, there was one couple who released white doves, impressive. I could have stayed much longer, he had had enough.

This is a great place near the water which offers the perfect view of both the Hermitage and Peter & Paul's Fortress. It is a nice place for an walk. There are often many people here and you can usually spot a traditional Russian bridal party taking pictures here.

Places on the island are beind intensly refurbished and as they attract more tourists, the memorial itself somehow becomes more prominent.

the Strelka was a lovely place, we walked over one sunny morning and enjoyed views of the Hermitage and Peter Paul fortress. It seemed a popular spot for wedding photoshoots, we saw at least three brides having their photos taken. There were a couple of souvenir stands and a coffee shop.

The New Stock Exchange by Thomas de Thomon, which replaced Quarenghi's project that was never finished, is presently closed and under renovation. The Naval Museum has been reinstalled in fine new quarters near the New Holland triangle on the Admiralty side.Yet even in its present shabbiness, the Stock Exchange is key to understanding the early C19 shift in attitudes that characterizes the final admission that Vasilyevsky Island was not to provide the pivotal element of the city's plan, as the French planner Leblond had earlier envisioned.The subtle shift in axis in line with the natural coordinates of the site directs attention to Palace Quay on the Admiralty side (from the Summer Garden to the Hermitage) in an attempt to reconcile the three built-up vistas: the so-called Petersburg side (The Peter and Paul Fortress), the cultural complex on Vasilyevsky Island (now the only consistent grouping of purely C18 buildings remaining in the capital), and the patently aristocratic Admiralty redevelopment, with its "three prongs", the most important and longest of which is the Nevsky Prospect.The famous, gigantic rose-red Rostral Columns on the Strelka (or cape) of Vasilyevsky Island are perfectly restored and are alone worth the visit in good weather and await the restoration of the NewExchange.

You'll have a glorious view of Petropavlovskaya (Peter and Paul) Fortress and the Winter Palace and if you are here in the summer, chances are, you'll witness a bride and groom strolling past as it's traditional in Russia to take as many photos around historical landmarks as possible on your wedding day.
