"What's in a name?" In the case of St. Petersburg, Russia, there is a lot. In 1703 Tzar Peter I (Peter the Great) built a city on the site of the conquered Swedish fort of Nyenschnatz. This city was to be "The Window to Europe." It was named St. Petersburg and it was the Russian Capital until 1917. Leaders and architects ensured that St. Petersburg was rich with breathtaking landmarks. At the outbreak of World War I the name changed to Petrograd (Peter's City.) In 1924 when Lenin died, Petrograd was renamed Leningrad, a tribute to the national hero. In 1991 the citizens voted to restore the name of St. Petersburg, coming full circle. The locals call their city Piter. Stroll along the granite-clad Neva River on the long, bright summer evening and you will understand why it is also known as "The City of White Nights." Come tour through history with legendary figures and buildings of St. Petersburg.

Challenging addition to Dowdle Inventory

My wife and I worked on St. Petersburg sporadically over about 3 weeks. It is a beautiful puzzle featuring many details that took time to sort out. The image sheet frequently required use of a magnifying glass to distinguish people figures especially. That said, the finished puzzle is amazing and an amazing addition to the Dowdle product line. Well done!

Very challenging!

Beautiful puzzle and really hard :)
We loved it but had to do an easier one afterward. Keep 'em coming!

Love this city and this puzzle!

Eric captured so many of the wonderful sights and colors of this beautiful city! Thank you for painting it/making this puzzle—it got us excited to visit St. Petersburg. Once we arrived we recognized several places on sight because of the puzzle!

Love/hate!

Just finished this puzzle today. Took me 11.5 hours so I know it was a hard one for me. Very challenging but it is absolutely beautiful. I really enjoyed putting it together.
