Amazing Montrepo Park and a walk around Burger Manor.
Yesterday you looked around Vyborg, today you have to immerse yourself in the atmosphere of the city. Start the day with a trip to the rocky landscape park "Montrepo", take a sightseeing tour and get to know this place better. Everyone knows about Vyborg pretzel, but not everyone knows the history of its origin. Go to Burger Manor if you want to know.
