What to bring from St. Petersburg or give to St. Petersburg

Ideas of Gifts and Souvenirs

What to bring from St. Petersburg as a souvenir to yourself, friends and relatives. Or even give it to Peterburg. The list is not small, I thought over it for a long time, and for convenience I put together ideas in sections: tasty, beautiful, book and museum, theater and for lovers in St. Petersburg.

1. Tasty gifts

- Chocolate and candies Special (Krupskaya factory) - sold in supermarkets and brand stores of the Krupskaya Factory, there are many of them in the city. - Kronstadt marshmallow (sold in brand stores of the Krupskaya factory) and in Kronstadt.

- Sweets from Abrikosov (candies, marshmallows and handmade marmalade, jam) - all this can be bought in a cafe with interiors of the early XX century on Nevsky, 40-42

Chocolate in the form of smelt, our attractions, subway tokens, lucky tickets for the tram, and many other sweet fun from the Bureau of Sweet Architecture Rubiscookies

And here is a bonus from me - if you name or show the word photostroll, you will get a surprise from the store when you buy it. Search the street. Treasury, 5 (Sadovaya / Senny / Spasskaya metro) and in the Nikolsky rows at Semysty.

- St. Petersburg's most fashionable candy. Candy factory "Culture", which was opened on Vasilievsky Island by confectioner Zhenya Shefer. Zhenya is a graduate of the world’s most famous confectionery academy, Le Cordon Bleu. On the menu: candy, brownies, souffle, aged muffins, playful dragees and vegan marmalade. Cultural sweets can be found at 3 addresses in St. Petersburg. More on the website.

- And if you like to cook yourself - here is the idea of a gift for you.

2. Beautiful Gifts and Cosmetics

- Rings with bars of St. Petersburg embankments from Fillart (I love their jewelry with enamel too). You can order on their website or in the Silver Season store near the Kazan Cathedral.

- Coffee pair, children's set or plate from the Imperial Porcelain Factory (many IFZ stores in the center, the range is huge). Look around here.

- Precious decoration in Faberge style, decorated with enamel. Simpler copies can be found in the souvenir shop of the Faberge Museum. Options in the performance of the plant Russian Gems of high quality (and prices) - in the Yakhont store on the Big Sea, 24 (it was there that the Faberge company traded its things). There are other points of sale - look at www.russam.ru

- Wooden brooches and earrings, as well as shoppers and belt bags with a love of art - all this is Olesya and Kolya and their Bill Traylor Broke on line 5 V.O. You can also order it on the website.

Lipstick with a romantic name from Samosvet - an independent brand of cosmetics with production and laboratory in St. Petersburg. For example, shades "Sakura on Litein", "Date on the Fontanka", "Romantics of roofs", "Flowers of the Summer Garden" with their names call for action and call for a walk. Samosvet products can be found in St. Petersburg, Moscow, Kazan, Krasnodar, Cheboksary or ordered on the website.

3. Book and museum gifts. Beauty and art. Practical and not much.

- postcards, office, or a book about St. Petersburg from Subscription Editions

- books on art and bookkeeping in the shop "The End of a Beautiful Epoch" at the Brodsky Museum "1.5 rooms" - a book, a painting on canvas, a t-shirt, a Panama notebook, a raincoat, a badge or avoska (and so on and so on) from museum stores: for example, the Hermitage store, in the Theater Museum, in the Russian Museum (there are many interesting things on very different topics)

- figurines and jewelry with characters invented by Mikhail Shemyakin. Look in its center on Sad Street, 11 or on the website

- Souvenirs, jewelry, books in the shop of the Faberge Museum and on the website

4. Theatre gifts and souvenirs

- board game about the theaters of St. Petersburg, notebooks with drawings by Bakst, a fan or bag for theatrical shift, and more books and albums on theatrical and ballet themes (for children there are also) - in souvenir shops of the Theatre Museum, Sheremetevsky Palace and the Alexandrinsky Theatre

5. Gifts for lovers in St. Petersburg

- shop of minimalist souvenirs of local production "El" on Kirokochnoy str., 6 (Annenkirche near). The store is very cozy and instagrammable. There they pour tea and let you try the unusual.

On sale: ceramics, T-shirts and sweatshirts St. Petersburg attraction, postcards, badges, books, freeze-dried (i.e. dried) berries and even cones! And lots of other things. You can collect a gift box with anything from the store.

Initially, the guys from Yekaterinburg, but now opened a shop in St. Petersburg. There's an online store.

- Certificate for any excursion, photo walk or map-traveling or quest in the phone in St. Petersburg with me (route maps from 850 rubles, excursions from 4000 rubles for any amount, I will do the program individually). To order an electronic or paper certificate, write to me
