On the bank of the Moika river in Saint-Petersburg there is a flat where the great Russian poet A.Pushkin used to live. The flat is very large, light and beautiful. There are a lot of rooms with beautiful old furniture. There are even some toys from the past in the centre of the living rooms and a lot of paintings on the walls. Some of the rooms are decorated with Pushkin’s handwritings and attributes of his life. You can take an audio-guide and listen to the interesting excursion while walking from one room to the other. I strongly recommend you to visit that museum to get an idea of the way the great poet lived and created his genius works.
