This is the most Russian in style of the St Petersburg churches and is one of those sights that it’s hard to walk away from. It’s likened to St Basil’s in Moscow, mainly because of the stripy domes, but in reality it’s much smaller and doesn’t bear much closer architectural comparison. It stands next to the Griboyedova canal, which makes the setting even more picturesque, but it’s worth seeing from all angles, so have a good walk around.
