Kedarnath & Badrinath Map

Kedarnath Dham is a town in the Rudraprayag district of Uttarakhand, India. It is known for its Kedarnath Temple, which attracts thousands of pilgrims worldwide every year. At approximately 86 kilometers from Rudraprayag, the district headquarters, Kedarnath mandir is one of the most remote of India's four Chota Char Dham pilgrimage sites. It is located in the Himalayas, about 3,583 meters (11,755 feet) above sea level near the Chorabari Glacier-the source of the Mandakini River.

The Kedarnath temple is surrounded by snow-capped peaks, most notably Kedarnath Mountain. The nearest road head is at Gaurikund, about 16 km away. Kedarnath yatra has been a pilgrimage center for centuries. According to the Mahabharata, the Pandava brothers built an altar for Lord Shiva at Kedarnath. However, there is no mention of  Kedarnath mandir in the Mahabharata. One of the earliest references to Kedarnath Dham occurs in the Skanda Purana (7th-8th century), which names Kedara (Kedarnath) as the place where Lord Shiva released holy waters from his matted hair, resulting in the formation of the Ganges River.

Devotees will chant and celebrate the trail as you travel through. An echo of "Har Har Mahadev" fills you with an exceptional spiritual embodiment of Kedarnath Dham.

The final reach of Kedarnath mandir is enough to overwhelm devotees with the chants of “Mahadev”. Kedarnath Temple was covered in long ribbons of marigold garlands and long happy queues of devotees, who seemed to be enjoying every moment they spent in this sacred place.

1. What is the best and the safest time to go on this holy Yatra? There are two peak seasons to embark on this holy Yatra i.e. April to June and then September and October. 

2. What are some of the issues we can face on the journey?  Carry ample cash with you as you won’t find ATMs everywhere so it is better to be with enough cash to utilize in case of an emergency. No matter which month are you selecting for your Char Dham Darshan, you are always advised to carry woolens with you as there is no consistency in the climatic condition especially night becomes cold? You are not going to find medical stores everywhere in the state so do carry your medical kit to avoid any serious trouble.

3. Is opting for helicopter services to cover this holy Yatra is better option? There are many benefits if you complete this religious tour with helicopter services like it transforms this immensely challenging journey into a simpler and faster one.

4. What are the documents needed for this pilgrimage? Valid ID proof like Aadhar Card, Driving License, Passport (mandatory for foreigners), etc. Other things that you need to carry along with you are medical kit containing that particular medicine if you have any prolonging illness, if you are covering the trekking trails then you must be equipped with trekking gears like a proper pair of shoes, comfortable dresses, etc.

5. Is the journey safe for senior citizens? Yes, it is safe for every aged person; however, it will be very difficult for the old-aged people to cover the trekking distance on foot, so they can opt for helicopter services.

6. Is it mandatory to register ourselves for this sacred tour? Yes, the registration for Char Dham Yatra is mandatory as the government wants to keep a record of every devotee. This registration procedure has become compulsory after the flood incident in 2013. Also, both online and offline mode of registration is available that one can select as per their wish.

7. Is there any issue in finding accommodation there? No, there are enough hotels established in the state and the regions where you will be making your halt on the way to the pilgrimages. But, if you are visiting the sites in the peak season then you need to be pro-active in booking your hotels in advance or else you won’t find a good place to stay.

Gaurikund is the last point where the vehicles are allowed and after that one has to trek or hire a pony/ palki for Kedarnath Temple. You can also board a helicopter from Guptkashi to Kedarnath, which takes almost 5 minutes. From the Kedarnath helipad, the temple is situated at just 700 m.

Ans: You can reach Kedarnath from Gaurikund by trekking. The temple is situated 16 km from Gaurikund. You can trek otherwise you can hire a pony/palki or a Pithu.

Ans: It depends on several factors including the time availability and their physical endurance. The Yatra requires a trek of 16 km. Most of the devotees who do not have much time or cannot trek for 16 km, travel by helicopter. It saves a lot of time and you can complete the Yatra in 1 day. However, if someone chooses to trek then it requires 2-3 days for Yatra. A helicopter is a good option for those who are short of time.

Ans: You will get the basic accommodation at Kedarnath. It is advisable to book accommodation in advance as there are fewer chances of getting a good place to stay at the last moment during the peak season. However, Indian Holiday can assist you to make the reservation in hotels like Punjab Sindh Awas, Gayatri Bhawan, and New Himachal House.

Ans: You can stay at Kedarnath overnight, however, it all depends on the month of travel. If you are traveling in the months of April, May, and June, then you can stay at Kedarnath at night. Since the temple is located at a high altitude so the temperature will get low especially at night, hence it is not advisable to stay overnight at Kedarnath for the old persons or for those who are suffering from a health condition. If you can get Helicopter tickets, then it is advisable to return the same day after darshan.

Ans: It requires a minimum of 3 days to visit Kedarnath Temple. However, it depends on the mode of travel you will choose to visit Kedarnath Temple. If you are planning to visit the temple by helicopter then it can be possible in one day only whereas if you are going to trek or hire a pony/palki then you require 3 days to visit the temple.

Ans: No, the Kedarnath Temple is not open throughout the year. The opening and closing days change every year. The opening and closing dates are decided by the priests.

Kedarnath – How to plan a trip [Complete Travel Guide]

Shefali Joshi

Kedarnath is a divine Hindu settlement situated in Rudraprayag district of Uttarakhand. It is one of the Char Dhams located in the Himalayas, and is situated at an astounding height of 3584 meters above sea level near the head of Mandakini River.

The Kedarnath temple lies amidst the majestic snow-capped Garhwal Himalayan ranges and is thronged by thousands of tourists and pilgrims each year. Also, the Kedarnath trek is stunningly beautiful and quite eclectic, even in the trekking circuit.

Gangotri, Yamunotri and Kedarnath Closed for Winters

Famous for the ancient shrine devoted to Lord Shiva, it offers a calm atmosphere with a beautifully painted backdrop thanks to the rhododendron woods, snow-covered mountains, and splendid sights of nature. An amalgamation of devoutness and adventure is what makes it incomparable. A MUST VISIT for one and all.

Let's quickly dive into the details:

About Kedarnath

Kedarnath literally means the Lord of the field, and it is so called because the “crop of liberation” grows here. While it is not certain who constructed the temple or when! One of the earliest references of Kedarnath is in the 7th or 8th century. It is also believed that Adi Shankara died near the sanctuary.

History & Mythology

It is believed that post the battle of Kurukshetra, Pandavas went on a journey to Banaras in order to repent killing their own and seek blessings from the Lord. But, Shivji wanted to avoid meeting with the brothers, and thus, took solace in Guptakashi.

However, Pandavas were relinquishing in their search for the Lord and when they found him, Shivji decided to take the form of buffalo so that they couldn’t recognize him. Now, when Shivji saw the Pandavas approaching closer, he wanted to hide even further.

Thus, He took the decision to also become invisible by way of going underground. However, brother Bhīma tried hard to stop him from leaving by holding on to the legs and tail of the bull. Unfortunately, the Lord dived and evaporated at that place leaving behind his hump which is now worshipped at Kedarnath Temple.

It is however believed that through cosmic energy, the Pandavas were exempted from their sins and Shivji informed that from then onwards He would be present in Jyotirlinga form at Kedarnath.

Located in the Rudraprayag district, Kedarnath is the most remote of all Chota Char Dham sites. Situated near the Chorabari Glacier – the source of the Mandakini river, Kedarnath is flanked by snow-capped peaks – most prominently the Kedarnath mountain (6,940 mts) and the Kedar Dome (6,831 mts). Located at a distance of 223 KM from Rishikesh, the town is built on a barren stretch of land on the shored of the river.

The town unfortunately suffered extensive destruction during 2013 due to flash floods caused by torrential rains in Uttarakhand. The temple magnificently survived the harsh calamities!

In line with the Himalayan weather, Kedarnath experiences cool summers while the winters are extremely difficult and harsh. Summer is ideal for all sight-seeing, temple visits and experiencing nearby attractions as well. The average temperature is around 17 degrees in the summer.

Monsoon months are difficult and the area has suffered extreme rainfall many times, particularly in 2013. Monsoon weather is around 12 degrees. Winters are cold, complex and inhabitable. The palki of Lord Kedarnath is transferred to its winter abode near Guptakashi – Ukhimath from November to April. Weather in this season is always in the negative!

Best time to visit Kedarnath

Right at the beginning of the season in April till the onset of monsoons and post-monsoon till close of the season. Kedarnath has a cold climate for most part of the year and the best months to travel are May, June, September, October.

Camping at Kedarkantha Trek

How to get there

Kedarnath is well connected with most of the important towns of Uttarakhand. The nearest road head to Kedarnath is about 18 KMs later, Gaurikund.

Jolly Grant Airport, Dehradun is the closest airport, at a distance of 238 KMs. The airport is well connected to Delhi with daily flights. Taxis are easily available from the airport to Gaurikund.

The nearest railway station to Kedarnath is Rishikesh, at a distance of 216 KMs before Kedarnath on NH58. Further, Gaurikund is well connected by motorable roads with Rishikesh. Taxis and buses are easily available to reach Gaurikund.

Prior to reaching Kedarnath, the last motorable point is Gaurikund. From there on out, you’ll be trekking for 16-odd-km. Gaurikund is connected with major destinations in North India. Buses and shared cabs are available from Haridwar, Rishikesh & Rudraprayag to Sonprayag, the last point until which private vehicles are allowed.

Buses to Rishikesh and Shrinagar are available from ISBT, Kashmiri Gate. From Sonprayag, there is a shared cab facility offered by the government, where the cab will drop you in Gaurikund for a fee.

Helicopter Options

You may even get a helicopter ride if you’re not into trekking (although I strongly recommend the trek!). The services are available from different helipads such as Guptkashi, Sersi, Phata etc.

What to do in Kedarnath

Given that Kedarnath is a religious destination, clearly the centermost attraction are places with mythological connotations.

Kedarnath Temple

Enveloped in the mighty Garhwal Himalayas, the Kedarnath Temple is one of the twelve Jyotirlingas of Lord Shiva. Dedicated to Lord Shiva, Kedarnath Temple is among the 275 temples of Paadal Petra Sthalams (the most powerful Shiva temples in the world) and is also the most important among the Panch Kedars.

With fresh air synonymous with the hills and stunning views that you have to earn – you will lose all sense of time here! For thousands of year, this place has been worshipped and the energy of the region is that of positivity, hope and beliefs for the future.

Inside the temple, you’ll be greeted with a small hall with images of Parvati as well as the Pandavas. The hall is decorated with statues of Krishna, Pandavas, Draupadi, Virbhadra and many other deities! There is a conical rock inside the temple which is worshipped as the Sadashiva (forever Shiv).

Made from grey stones which are interlocked with the use of iron clamps – the temple is truly striking in the backdrop of Himalayas.

Gandhi Sarovar

Gandhi Sarovar is a small crystal clear lake, also known as Chorabari Tal. This is so because it is situated on the mouth of Chorabari Bamak glacier. Gandhi Sarovar lies on the foot of Kedarnath and Kirthi Stambh peak at an astounding altitude of 3,900mts above sea level. The lake comes after completed further 4 KMs trek from Kedarnath Temple.

Kalimath is a religious place located on the banks of Saraswati river. Located at a height of 1800 mts, Kalimath is one of the 108 Shakti Peeths in India. Kalimath lies on lap of nature offering salubrious and divine environment. Goddess Kali Temple is located in Kalimath.

Bhairav Temple

Bhairavnath Temple or Bhairon Baba Mandir is situated south of the Kedarnath temple on the eastern hill of the lofty Himalayas of Uttarakhand. The temple is dedicated to Bhairav – the fierce manifestation of Lord Shiva associated with destruction and devastation. The temple offers some stunning views of the Himalayas and it is a beautiful portion of your journey to Kedarnath!

Gaurikund Temple

Gaurikund temple is a temple dedicated to Goddess Parvati. According to myths and legends, this is the place where Goddess Parvati did penance involving ascetic and yoga practices to win over Shiva’s heart. It is believed that Lord Shiva admitted his love for the Goddess here and they then married at Triyuginarayan temple.

Shankaracharya Samadhi

Adi Shankaracharya was a philosopher, credited with unifying and establishing the main thoughts in Hinduism. At the age 32, he decided to attain moksha at Kedarnath and merged under with the land near the Kedarnath Temple. The samadhi is situated right behind the temple.

What to do around Kedarnath

There is so much to explore around the Kedarnath Temple. So, remember to keep some time at hand to truly immerse yourself into the experience!

Vasuki Tal Lake

Vasuki Tal is a high glacial lake situated at an impressive altitude of 14,200 feet above sea level near Kedarnath Dham. One can spot Brahma Kamal and other Himalayan flowers blooming around the placid lake, making for some spectacular views.

Ideally, I would suggest you complete the route in the day time itself, and spend the night at Kedarnath! The trek distance from Kedarnath temple is 8 KMs, initial 3-4 KMs is easy before the ascend begins. The icy Vasuki Tal is just 900 meters downhill from Vasuki top.

Guptkashi is situated 47kms before the holy shrine of Lord Shiva, Kedarnath. It is located on the route to Kedarnath on a ridge on the west side of the Mandakini river valley at an elevation of 1,319mts above sea level.

Guptkashi is a religiously important town of Uttarakhand as it houses ancient temples like Vishwanath temple and Ardhnareshwar temple. A highly revered attraction, Manikarnika Kund is where two streams of the Ganga and Yamuna meet.

Kedarnatha Trek

Kedarnatha trek is in one of the most significantly religious areas, especially in the Hindu Mythology. The Temple of Lord Kedarnatha (Shivji), which sits at the base of the summit, has stood the test of time and is revered amongst spiritual believers.

Millions of pilgrims move mountains to offer their prayers and seek blessings of the Hindu Deity each year. The temple itself lies at the base of the Kedarnath Peak, facing the Kedar Parvat. A beginner level trek, Kedarnath is especially beautiful in the winter months.

One of the most remarkable crests in the Himalayan region, both nature lovers and ardent trekkers tend to enjoy the experience.

Char Dham Yatra

The Chota Char Dham Yatra of Uttarakhand is the four abodes of holy shrines – Badrinath , Kedarnath, Yamunotri, and Gangotri . All four of these temples are situated within the Garhwal region of Uttarakhand. The prominence of the Charm Dham Yatra is immense amongst Hindus.

Moreover, it is believed that every Hindu should do Char Dham Yatra at least once in their lifetime. The Great Reformer and Philosopher, Adi Shankaracharya, gathered together these Holy Pilgrimage places into a spiritual circuit around the 8th century.

Generation followed generations and hundreds of thousands of devotees have kept up the tradition of covering these pilgrimage spots every year. Thus, it is very common to complete the circuit in one religious pilgrimage!

Best places to stay near Kedarnath

There is a huge government-run tented colony along with cottages as well as rooms run by GMVN. These are sufficient to home more than a thousand pilgrims and visitors. Also, there are hotels, guest houses, and Dharamshala as well.

A lot of folks have started taking the journey via helicopters and thus stay locations can be Phata, Rampur, Gaurikund, Sitapur etc.

Best places to eat

Unfortunately, the only option for decent food here is the food stalls and roadside dhabas. Food available is mostly north Indian cuisine. Of course, given the highly revered place in Hinduism that Kedarnath holds, it should come as no surprise that alcohol and non-vegetarian food is not served/ is prohibited.

Things to keep in mind

  • As instructed by the Uttarakhand government, it is necessary for every traveler to do bio-metric registration. The facility is available online as well. Alternatively, you may also do the same at Sonprayag.
  • You can easily find mules & porters to accompany you on your journey. Do remember to check the prices officially posted so as to avoid paying a larger sum
  • Also, if you are hiring porters or mule owners – remember to check their official IDs
  • It is always wise to avoid the hilly terrain in the monsoon season. Especially given the tragedy of 2013, and how badly Kedarnath was hit. If you are still heading there in the monsoon period – do check with officials and local authorities
  • Photography is not allowed in the temple premises. Be mindful of the fact and abide by the rules of the temple authorities.

Tips when travelling to Kedarnath

  • The trek is 16 KM long and will take you 6 hours, depending on your health
  • Try to start your trek early in the morning to avoid the harshness of the afternoon sun
  • Remember to eat a hearty (though not heavy) breakfast
  • Drink water and stay hydrated. However, do remember to carry your own water bottles.

St. Petersburg, Russia 4 Day Itinerary: In-Person or At-Home

St. Petersburg, Russia 4 Day Itinerary: In-Person or At-Home • Winetraveler

St. Petersburg, Russia beautifully blends history, culture, and architecture with elaborate palaces, churches, and world-famous museums and galleries. This city with more than 300 bridges, often called “The Venice of the North,” offers perpetual opportunities for history, art, and architecture lovers. Of course, sparkling wine and caviar is a delightful combination in this amazing city, along with vodka samplers. For specific recommendations, keep reading.

This itinerary is designed to help first-time visitors plan a trip to St. Petersburg, Russia while providing resources for travelers to tour many of the top sites from the comfort of their homes until non-essential international travel resumes. The recommendations include virtual tours, videos, books, and docuseries.

Things to Know Before You Go

The daylight hours are long in the summer, and short in the winter. The visa application process is extensive, time-consuming, a little expensive , and often needs to be applied for well in advance. The application form itself is quite lengthy. A visa invitational support document issued by a hotel or tourist agency (a booking reservation is insufficient) is required. Many hotels provide this for free. Others charge a small fee. If you’re entering for a short period on many cruise ships, the visa requirement is often exempted, but always confirm this first before going. You can browse flight deals as they arise here.

Winetraveler Tip: The CDC recommends not drinking tap water.

Where to Stay

The Golden Triangle Hotel  is a luxurious boutique hotel located in the heart of St. Petersburg with elegantly decorated rooms. A restaurant and lounge bar are available on-site. It is located near cafes, restaurants, and many top tourist sites, such as the Hermitage Museum and Church of the Savior on Spilled Blood. Tours can be booked directly through the hotel. For those traveling with little Winetravelers, cribs can be reserved.

Another fabulous choice to consider is Belmond Grand Hotel Europe . Search St. Petersburg hotel deals on TripAdvisor  for additional hotel choices.

Must-See Places

This enchanting city has lots to do and see. While the city has changed names several times over the years from St. Petersburg to Petrograd, then Leningrad, and back to St. Petersburg in 1991 at the collapse of the Soviet Union, it has remained Russian since it was founded by Tsar Peter the Great in 1703. No conqueror, namely Charles XII, Napoleon, or Hitler, was able to successfully capture the city.

The Hermitage Museum/Winter Palace is acclaimed as being the world’s second-largest art museum after the Louvre. The Winter Palace, the former residence of the Russian Tsars, is included within the museum complex. The exterior is grandiose, but the true marvel is once you enter inside the doors. Each room appears more elegant and lavish than the one before it. The unparalleled opulence displayed throughout every square inch of the palace provides a flavor of the extreme wealth of Imperial Russia.

The museum was founded in 1764 by Catherine the Great to store her private art collection. The Winter Palace became a museum after Nicholas II was overthrown during the Russian Revolution of 1917. More than 3 million exhibits, artifacts, and artwork from all over the world are contained within the extravagant walls. The collection of artwork includes works by Pablo Picasso, Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Van Gogh, and many others. 

Winetraveler Tip: Consider arriving before it opens to start waiting in line at the ticketing machines as the lines get long very quickly. The ticketing machines often move faster than the ticketing counters. Arriving early may enable travelers to enjoy many of the rooms before the tourists flood the halls. At least pre-COVID-19, the rooms got packed making it difficult to shuffle through the crowd without touching shoulders with other visitors.

History lovers should head over to the Bronze Horseman , the equestrian statue of Peter the Great in Senate Square commissioned by Catherine the Great

The Church of the Savior on Spilled Blood (also known as the Resurrection of Christ Church) is sure to WOW you. It is breathtaking inside and out. The church was built on the spot where Tsar Alexander II was assassinated in 1881 by a group of revolutionaries. The church’s name references this murder. The decorated onion-shaped domes resemble St. Basil’s Cathedral in Moscow. Mosaics dominate the interior of the church. The walls, columns, and arches are blanketed in over 7,000 square meters of mosaics. The detail in the mosaics are intricate and masterfully matched together. The walls appear to be elaborate paintings until you get closer.

The design of the Peterhof Palace , the summer palace of Peter the Great, was inspired by the Palace of Versailles. The lavish yellow palace perched on a hill is surrounded by perfectly manicured gardens, fountains, and golden statues.

Catherine’s Palace was built for Empress Catherine I, the second wife of Peter the Great. Empress Elizabeth (their daughter), known for satiating in luxury and never wearing the same dress twice, is responsible for the palace’s extravagance. Ornamented rooms feature elaborate furnishings and chandeliers, hundreds of lamps, painted ceilings, and walls covered in gold, mirrors, and exquisite artwork. The Amber Room —a room blanketed in 6 tons of amber mosaics—is the gem that draws most tourists to the palace. This room was initially presented as a gift to Peter the Great from the King of Prussia. During WWII, this palace, along with many others, was looted and ransacked by Nazis. The amber was stolen, never to be found again. In 2003, the 300th anniversary of St. Petersburg, a replica of the Amber Room was created.

Winetraveler Tip: Purchase tickets in advance. Anticipate it being extremely crowded. No photography of the Amber Room is permitted. For parents traveling with littles, be prepared that strollers are not allowed inside the palace.

St. Isaac’s Cathedral with dominating columns and a massive brilliantly colored golden dome is magnificent. During WWII, the golden dome was painted gray to blend it in with the surrounding buildings to save it from enemy aircraft. Bullet holes on the columns remain visible.

The star-shaped Peter and Paul Fortress on Hare Island was the first structure built in St. Petersburg. If you plan your visit to be there at noon, you should hear the time-honored tradition of the cannon being fired. The Peter and Paul Cathedral, within the fortress, is the burial place of many Russian rulers from Peter the Great to Nicholas II.

The Kazan Cathedral , dedicated to Our Lady of Kazan, a holy icon within the Russian Orthodox Church, was built to resemble Vatican’s St. Peter’s Basilica.

The Faberge Museum , housed in the Shuvalovsky Palace, hosts a collection of Faberge eggs made by Carl Faberge for the Russian Imperial Family, along with many other fancy items. The eggs were crafted using precious materials, such as silver, gold, diamonds, pearls, rubies, velvet, suede, and rock crystals. The first Faberge egg was made by the order of Tsar Alexander III for his wife.  The collection of eggs includes the Imperial Coronation Egg that was made in 1897 to commemorate the coronation of the last Russian emperor, Tsar Nicholas II. 

Conclude one or more of your days by going to a world-known ballet and opera theatre at Mikhailovsky and/or Mariinsky Theatre.

Where To Eat & Drink in St. Petersburg

St. Petersburg is a host to numerous diverse restaurants. Here are a few options to get you started:

Katyusha is a charming restaurant providing a homey atmosphere along with tasty traditional Russian meals. Stacked suitcases create the welcome desk with an antique cash register resting on top. Antique dolls, old books, and Russian dolls line the shelves built into a rustic brick wall. Flowery wallpaper/paintings, chintz lampshades, carved mirrors, printed sofas, and fabric curtains give a warm feeling. Their extensive menu includes a selection of caviar, homemade pickles, pickle soup, kebabs, dumplings, beef stroganoff, Russian meatballs, porridge, pancakes, an immense wine, and liquor list. If you’re unsure which vodka to try, order a tasting set and pick 5 vodkas to sample. Learn about and taste drinking traditions from the Soviet Union in the Katyusha Tasting Room.

L’Europe Restaurant , located in Grand Hotel Europe, is a luxurious restaurant featuring old world charm while elegantly blending European and Russian cuisine.

For those who love dining with a view, check out Terrassa Restaurant and/or Bellevue .

Indulge in gourmet caviar and sip sparkling wine at Art-Caviar . The menu features a variety of caviar, along with many other dishes such as artichoke soup, crab ravioli, duck breast, and filet mignon tataki. As described on their website, the interior is “inspired by the salons of the mid-twentieth century, parties with champagne and jazz music.”

Virtual Tours

Before traveling to St. Petersburg in person and soaking in all of its glory, there are many tours and videos available for free online enabling virtual travel to all the main sights from home. Take a virtual tour of the Hermitage Museum and Faberge Museum . Watch short videos taking you to the Hermitage Museum and the Church of the Savior on Spilled Blood , Kazan Cathedral, Peter and Paul Fortress, St. Isaac’s Cathedral , Peterhof Palace , Catherine’s Palace , and the Amber Room . If you have 5 hours to spare, take an unhurried journey through the Hermitage Museum .

Dive deep into St. Petersburg’s history through Robert K. Massie’s masterfully written extensive biographies. His books are exhaustively researched and brilliantly written to read like novels. Peter the Great and Catherine the Great: Portrait of a Woman densely document all facets of these two immensely powerful figures. From the founding of St. Petersburg, a new capital city, during the time of war on land still belonging to Russia’s undefeated enemy, to battles, the establishment of Russia’s navy, territorial expansions, reforms, and increased Westernization along with Catherine II’s indelicate personal life, the reader is kept engaged throughout both of these books. Nicholas and Alexandra: The Classic Account of the Fall of the Romanov Dynasty covers the events leading to the fall of Imperial Russia and the end of the royal family.

City of Thieves is a captivating novel by David Benioff (co-creator of Game of Thrones ) that takes place during the Nazis’ brutal and lengthy siege of Leningrad (present-day St. Petersburg). Leningrad was encircled and the city’s vital utilities and food supply lines were cut off. In a place where everyone is near starvation, two young men are forced on a nearly impossible mission of acquiring a dozen eggs for a powerful NKVD colonel.

Child 44 by Tom Rob Smith is an eloquently written suspenseful historical fiction novel. This page-turner follows a detective under Stalin’s rule investigating a serial killer of children. It’s a binge-worthy read nearly impossible to put down evoking an array of emotions from disgust, fear, anger, horror, and sadness to craving and romance.

Still looking for more? Immerse yourself in history through docuseries. It’s no surprise the world has been fascinated by Catherine the Great. Catherine II, even though not born in Russia became one of the most powerful women in history after seizing the throne from her husband. In many ways, she continued what Peter the Great had started. Ekaterina: The Rise of Catherine the Great (2014-19), presently available on Prime Video, is a sensational Russian language historical drama series with English subtitles tracing her accession to power. HBO has a 4-episode series with Helen Mirren playing Catherine the Great (2019) following the end of Catherine II’s reign.

The Last Czars (2019) is an excellent Netflix docudrama series centered on Russia’s last royal family and their demise.

Empire of the Tsars: Romanov Russia with Lucy Worsley (2016) (available on Prime Video) is a documentary perusing through the reign of the Romanov dynasty focusing on Peter the Great, Catherine the Great, and the downfall of the final Tsars.

Great piece! I love how you have also included books tips and virtual tour options. St Petersburg is on my list to get to one day, so this will be great for prep work! I actually saw a book yesterday about Catherine the Great’s art collection – I didn’t realise how huge that was!
