Finding interesting places in Kronstadt, armed with a tourist map, is not a big problem, especially since the entire central part of the city is included in the UNESCO heritage list. Here you can see naval symbols everywhere - monuments to sailors, torpedoes, anchors, and even local cafes are full of such “talking” signs as “Nautilus” and “Wardroom”.
Unusual sights of Kronstadt
- A monument to a water carrier: it was erected in honor of a man - a representative of an extinct profession. A water carrier pours water from a bucket into a barrel on wheels, which then flows into the fountain bowl.
- "Wish tree": the uniqueness of a 4-meter cast-iron tree lies in the presence of eyes, a large ear (as the reviews say, it is worth whispering your cherished desire into it or throwing a 5-ruble coin, previously wrapped in a piece of paper with wishes reflected in it, into the nest of a cast-iron owl) and a smile.
- Kronstadt tide gauge: A tide gauge measuring the height of the Baltic Sea level is installed on the abutment of the Blue Bridge.
