The proud spirit of the fighting nation! Europe's tallest building looks like this

Must-visit landmark in Saint Petersburg, Russia — Lakhta Center✨ 📍Address: On the coast of the Gulf of Finland, suburb of Saint Petersburg 🚇Transportation: Taxi recommended, about 30 minutes from the city center 🕒Opening hours: Observation deck open daily from 10:00 to 22:00 🔥An astonishing height of 462 meters! Truly Europe's No.1 skyscraper! - 87 floors with a rotating design, each floor rotates 0.82 degrees - Shape resembles an "okra" or "spring bamboo shoot," highly recognizable! - Rooftop observation deck offers breathtaking panoramic views of the Baltic Sea🌊 💎Super luxurious features: ✔️ Headquarters of Russian natural gas giant Gazprom ✔️ Open-air theater for 2,000 people ✔️ Top-tier science and education center + concert hall ✔️ Romantic night light beacon guiding ships 💡Fun facts: 1️⃣ Originally planned for the city center but was "exiled to the outskirts" for being too striking 2️⃣ The government specially amended height restriction laws for it! 3️⃣ The night lighting design is very artistic, making it a new landmark of Saint Petersburg✨ 🌆 Although the surroundings are bare and somewhat lonely, it looks absolutely stunning when lit up at night! Recommended to visit at dusk to capture beautiful sunsets and night views🌇
