Peter the Great Statue

Peter the Great Statue was quite near our hostel so I visited the area during my Russia trip. The statue is 94 metres tall and is apparently the 8th tallest statue in the world. It is located near the Cathedral of Christ the Saviour, which is located near the Kropotkinskaya metro.


Below are some of the pictures I've taken of this statue. Enjoy.
