Cottage Krivdina
Landmark
Open Details
Sestroretsk is a city with a special atmosphere. The quaint local cottages, built in the Art Nouveau style, are nothing short of spectacular. In the late XIX - early XX century this area was a thriving resort, where the St. Petersburg nobility relaxed. Today, many of the dachas are abandoned, however, this does not prevent them from looking fascinating.
One of the most unusual architectural objects is the dacha of Valentina Krivdina. There is very little historical information about the dacha, only the surname of the architect - Morozov is known.
You cannot get inside today, the building is conserved, but the photos on its background will be very atmospheric!

«Загородный дом Ф.Р. Витцеля»
Open Details
Another interesting building in Sestroretsk is the neoclassical country house of F.R.Vitzel, the chairman of St. Petersburg Thread Manufactory.
Until 2010 the mansion was a children's camp. Today, the building looks unusual: austere neoclassical motifs are juxtaposed with bright Soviet-era scrollboards and graffiti on the walls, which appeared after the camp fell into disrepair.

Park Mar'ina Gora
Park
Open Details
More than a century ago here was located Marioka estate - the estate of E. E. Kartavtsev, built for his wife - the writer Maria Krestovskaya. Today only a few stairs leading seemingly to nowhere, ruins of the temple covered with moss and monument to Krestovskaya herself, erected by her loving husband, testify to the former splendor of the estate.

НАША dacha
Restaurant
Open Details
"Nasha Dacha" is probably the coziest and homeliest Ginza Project restaurant. In the vintage interior you'll find familiar from childhood decor items: floor lamps decorated with fringe, knitted napkins, numerous paintings and photos in a variety of frames.
The atmosphere of the cottage is reflected in the cuisine: the menu includes homemade delicacies, juicy Chicken Kiev cutlets, smoked meats and pies.
