How to get there

Youssoupov Palace and Moïka 12

Croisière sur la Neva.

Steps: Saint-Pétersbourg

Start with the Youssoupov Palace. This remains of a large family of the empire, which owns land in all realms and organized literary evenings renowned in its lounges overlooking the waves of the Moika. Return to the Moika and go to the Pouckine apartment museum, located at 12 on the street. If the full address is the 12 th of the Quai de la rivière, the Petersbourgeois simply say "Moika 12" and everyone knows what we are talking about.

For dinner: The Pouchkin literary coffee, it would have been the place of the last meal of the poet. It is a kitsch, but the establishment is 200 years old.

Evening: there are many literary evenings, which are unfortunately not accessible to people who do not speak Russian. You can, however, go to the Morean Arts Center (beyond the Fontanka), a temple of counter-culture which may have been the writers' retreat.

Anna Akhmatova Museum, then in the footsteps of Dostoïesvki

Le croiseur Aurore, deux ans après sa rénovation.

Steps: Saint-Pétersbourg

Anna Akhmatova's apartment museum on the Fontanka is one of the best and has declined the dusty side of the exercise. A great tribute to the one who at the end of his life still laughed like a little girl. For lunch you can go to the Art Nouveau ambiance of Palkin (beyond the Fontanka), for an expensive lunch but reminiscent of the charm of the roaring years. A walk in Dostoïesvki's realistic novels will complement these literary visits. Better than Dostoyevsky has managed to grasp the quintessence of the city that thrives. You will start with the Sennaya Ploshchahd (Place aux Hay), where the fates of the heroes of the novels of Dostoyevsky intersect. Then the Perspective perspective, where Raskolnikov, the hero of Crime and punishment, was murdered. You will also pass near the church of Notre-Dame-de-Vladimir, where the writer went to the end of his life. Then the Littéraire Literary Museum. Not very literary, but dominating the Sennaya Ploshchahd, the Nebo restaurant, gives a good point of view at the end of the day.
