  • The tallest building in Europe is in Russia, the Lakhta Center in St. Petersburg! My fellow UA-camr friend Niki Proshin and I went on a mission to get some pictures of the super-tall skyscraper for my Instagram.
    The Lakhta Center tower is located north of the city, by the Begovaya Metro station at the end of the green line. Construction was completed a few years ago but it is still not fully operational, it is a work in progress. There’s going to be an Observation area near the top which I’m hoping to explore when it opens.
    In today’s Vlog we eat a quick lunch at Tokyo City, a popular chain of restaurants here in St. Petersburg. Then, we head north on the metro and explore the 300 Years of St. Petersburg Park (Park 300-Letiya Sankt-Peterburga). I also fall in love with a beautiful Russian girl on the metro, I should’ve gotten her number. Hope you enjoyed this video from the tallest skyscraper in Russia and Europe.
    Next few videos will be from my trip to Moscow with another friend!

    I hope I can travel to Russia or live there in the future. Unfortunately, I am only 16 and I have to study for IGCSE. I love the design and environment of Saint Petersburg and look pretty convenient to travel especially affordable for foreigners to purchase goods. I really love your videos and it is more of an inspiration to travel.

    I am a new subscriber to your channel. I came here because of Niki's recommendation. What will be the purpose of the new building? I also like the Russian and Soviet cars, since we don't see those here in America. A show about old and new, foreign and domestic cars would be fun. I was in Moscow and SPB in 2018 for the first time. I agree the contrast between the cities and metro is great. I like them both. I will watch for more videos. Good luck.
