Hello, I am planning a trip to Russia in September. So far I am planning to visit St. Petersburg but would like to see more of the country. I was thinking about taking to train to Petrozavodsk. I have been seaching for information about the city and have not been able to find very much. Does anyone have any information or sites that you could share?

Petrozavodsk is an excellent centre for taking trips around Karelia, a very beautiful wilderness with lakes. And perhaps the odd mosquito.

Boris Yeltsin had a summer resort there.

Good place to stay:
Hotel Severnaya, Petrozavodsk.

I recently discovered that you can fly to Petrozavodsk from Helsinki,
though it isn't cheap.
