What about clubs&sports?
You should not think of St. Petersburg as of an only «open-air museum». It’s not the place where you can only visit exhibitions and go sightseeing. In the Northern Capital of Russia there is a variety of opportunities for active rest, such as sports and clubs.
Those who live a healthy life will no doubt have a place to go. You can do aerobics in the fitness center or improve your body at the gym. These exist in any area of the city. The range of services is wide — from shaping and callanetics to yoga.
For those who love water sports the city can suggest different swimming pools, which offer to their customers swimming, aerobics, water polo. Also, some swimming pools have different baths and saunas, which will make your rest not only interesting but also useful.
You may also like different sections and clubs. The city has an opportunity to take any course — fencing, football, dancing.
In winter in the parks of the Northern Capital you can ski. Actually there are a lot of opportunities for winter sports. There are sections of hockey, figure skating.
Those who believe that sports is boring, may go to the club. Dance clubs are places that are democratic. They focus on people for whom the main condition for high-quality nights rest is good music. Prices in dance clubs may vary, but they are certainly acceptable. People usually come to such places to dance, listen to music and chat in a pleasant company. The audience in these clubs is very different. The music you can hear there is Russian Pop, Europop, RnB and popular house, although there are exceptions (for example, Latin American Hall at the club «Havana»).
