Horse-drawn carriages in the city center are not uncommon. This is a popular tourist attraction. At the Palace Square, you will surely see at least one. But on other streets, horse-drawn carriages still attract attention. Therefore, as soon as I saw the carriage, I immediately began to photograph. The background for the carriage was St. Isaac's Cathedral. St. Isaac's Cathedral will also be visible in the last photo, which was taken at the very end of my walk.
