From Prospekt Slavy metro station to the parks and history of Kupchino
A walk along Prospekt Slavy, through parks and streets that preserve the memory of war and the present day
Stories along the route
Проспект Славы (станция метро) · 0.0 km
You are standing at the entrance to a station that opened quite recently — in October 2019. It is one of the youngest stations of the St. Petersburg metro, and it appeared here for a reason.
Парк Интернационалистов · 0.8 km
You are standing at the edge of a green oasis that locals call the Park of Internationalists. But do you know what's most surprising? This place holds memories not only of wars, but also of how the city itself changed.
Парк Героев-Пожарных · 1.6 km
Before you is a park that grew out of clay quarries — raw material for a brick factory was once extracted here, and now six ponds ripple with water.
Купчинские карьеры · 2.0 km
Before you are not just puddles and not random ponds — this is a man-made sea hidden in the very heart of Kupchino. Six enormous bowls, once dug for sand and clay extraction, are now filled with water.
Фрунзенский район (Санкт-Петербург) · 2.4 km
You are standing in the very heart of a district named after a man whose surname sounds like a command — Frunze. This is not just a name on the map; it is the imprint of an entire era.
