The street is wonderful lined up with restaurants, kids activities and ending on one side at Hermitahe museum. It had so many tourists and different souvenir shops. Amazing place.

I couldn’t believe the number of people walking along this busy street. Packed everywhere! And wonderful stores lined up for your shopping pleasure. We walked quite a while and found some very interesting shops and a beautiful park.

it’s the Main Road for Tourists ... nothing is really needed to add , but we need to write min. 100 letters :-)

This is a very busy avenue that has a lot of stores, restaurants and buildings with very interesting history.

Bustling, vibrant and an endless selection of great places to explore. It's all there in Nevsky Prospekt. Felt safe and plenty of landmarks from the Hermitage to Fontanka to avoid getting too lost. Magic

It’s hard to explain the intense but pleasant assault on one’s senses while wandering this street but it’s in a city that constantly and completely overwhelmed me. Buskers, hawkers, locals and tourists hustle, bustle and compete for space and I wished I had much more...More

To avoid missing so much of the history of this area I suggest a local walking tour and from very recent experience Andy from Historical St Petersburg Walking Tour made my time in this location extremely enjoyable and informative.
