On the initiative of Peter the Great, the monastery was built in 1710 to house the relics of Saint Alexander Nevsky. The site has eleven churches and four cemeteries including that of Our Lady of Tikvine called the necropolis of masters of the art where many famous people are buried such as Dostoyevsky, Rimsky-Korsakov, Borodin, Tchaikovsky and Marius Petipa. At the end of the afternoon, the faithful gather at the cathedral to attend the service with meditation while the sublime choirs of Laure reason.
Saint Alexander Nevsky Lavra or Saint Alexander Nevsky Monastery was founded by Peter I of Russia in 1710 at the eastern end of the Nevsky Prospekt in Saint Petersburg supposing that that was the site of the Neva Battle in 1240 when Alexander Nevsky, a prince, defeated the Swedes; however, the battle actually took place about 12 miles (19 km) away from that site. On April 5, 1713, in St. Petersburg, in the presence of Peter I, the wooden Church of the Annunciation was consecrated. This day is considered the official founding date of the Alexander Nevsky Lavra. (April 5, 1713 Gregorian was March 25 Julian, feast of the Annunciation.)
The relics of St. Alexander Nevsky were solemnly transferred from Vladimir to the new capital of Russia September 12, 1724, by decree of Peter the Great. (In fact it was August 30 Julian, or September 10 Gregorian; however, since the Russian Orthodox Church still follows the Julian calendar, the transfer of the relics is still celebrated on August 30 Julian, which corresponds to September 12 Gregorian in the 20th–21st centuries.) Nevsky became patron of the newly founded Russian capital; however, the massive silver sarcophagus of St. Alexander Nevsky[4] was relocated during Soviet times to the State Hermitage Museum where it remains (without the relics) today.
In 1797, the monastery was raised to the rank of lavra, making it only the third lavra in the Russian Orthodox Church that had that designation bestowed upon it, following only the Kiev Monastery of the Caves and the Trinity Monastery of St Sergius.
The monastery grounds contain two baroque churches, the Annunciation Church and the Feodorovskaya Church, designed by father and son Trezzini and built from 1717–1722 and 1742–1750, respectively; the Neoclassical Holy Trinity Cathedral, built in 1778–1790 to a design by Ivan Starov and consecrated to the Holy Trinity; and numerous structures of lesser importance. It also contains the Lazarevskoe, Tikhvin, Nikolskoe, and Kazachye Cemeteries, where ornate tombs of Leonhard Euler, Mikhail Lomonosov, Alexander Suvorov, Nikolay Karamzin, Modest Mussorgsky, Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, Fyodor Dostoevsky, Karl Ivanovich Rossi, Prince Garsevan Chavchavadze, a Georgian aristocrat, Sergei Witte and other famous Russians are preserved.
During the Revolution, the People's Commissar of Social Welfare Kollontai wanted to convert the monastery into a 'sanctuary for war invalids'. Therein on 19 January 1918 she sent a group of sailors, who were met by an angry crowd of worshipers, and after some fighting a priest was shot and killed.
Today the Alexander Nevsky Lavra sits on Alexander Nevsky Square, where shoppers can buy bread baked by the monks. Visitors may also visit the cathedral and cemeteries for a small admission fee. While many of the grave sites are situated behind large concrete walls, especially those of famous Russians, many can be seen by passers-by while strolling down Obukhovskoy Oborony Street.
SELF DRIVE IN RUSSIA 2019| RUSSIA IN WINTERS | ROAD TRIP | SHERP ATV |
For us, Russia is one of the most beautiful destinations in the world. Winter in Russia is a bit like stepping inside a snow globe - it’s beauty and culture are never more pronounced than when it is covered in a blanket of snow.
The expedition officially began in Moscow, where all the participants from across India gathered together for an unforgettable and icy cold experience and ended in St. Petersburg which is arguably one of the most beautiful cities on earth.
Driving the iconic UAZ Patriot 4x4 SUV and watching the epic landscapes glide by through the window, that’s the best way to experience the real beauty of Russia. A winter drive is one of the best ways to discover not only the unique charms of Russia’s biggest cities, Moscow & St Petersburg but also age-old towns like Valday and Veliky. We also indulged in fun activities like husky walks & sledding, snow golf, ice fishing, skiing, snowboarding and experienced driving on the frozen Volga River - the longest river in Europe. Finally, ended the journey with a ride in the amphibious Sherp ATV.
Route: Moscow - Sergiev Posad - Koprino - Vologda - Tikhvin - Karjala Park - Saint Petersburg

The Tikhvin Canal in 1865
Here I present an album of photographs, taken in 1865 of the Tihkvin water system in northern Russia
Tihvinskaya water system was one of the waterways connecting the Volga with the Baltic Sea,[1] and specifically the Mologa River with Syas River. In terms of the current administrative division of Russia, the waterway belongs to Vologda and Leningrad Oblasts.
It was first conceived by Peter the Great, but construction started only in 1802. Tihvinskaya water system was built for the passage of middle-sized ships in the early 19th century and functioned until the middle of 20th century. Construction of railways and the movement of ships along the Svir River increased competition, which led to the closure of the Tikhvin system.
Sadly today, the Tihvinskaya water system has fallen into decline. All the gates are destroyed. The water level in Tikhvinka river has fallenl more than 5 meters. Tikhvinka is heavily polluted with household waste. Numerous monuments of architecture, located on the banks of the Tikhvinka and its tributaries are in dilapidated condition.

For channel development
Friends, I created a small channel Bike ride in Moscow about the city life of the city of Moscow, where I post interesting videos about today's life and what is happening at the moment. Small videos of sketches from parks, public places. Sometimes it's just a walk through the evening city, which can convey the atmosphere of the city, sometimes it's new quarters or atmospheric video sketches with musical accompaniment. I also love evening walks from one area to another. Moscow is also being built, new architecture, new residential complexes and even residential areas. A walk through the new modern residential complexes of Moscow, to see in what style the city began to change. Holidays are how the city is decorated with its architecture and life, all this attracts attention and of course you want to capture it in good quality and create original content. But just listening to the noise of the city is not very interesting, so I add musical accompaniment depending on the atmosphere or situation. The bike and the city of Moscow are harmoniously combined with each other. Sometimes such a video is more interesting because you can ride a bike for quite a long distance than walking from one street to another. On my channel there is content about the current life of the city of Moscow, seasoned with musical accompaniment and my view of this world. This virtual tour of Moscow in 4K60 fps resolution will leave the most pleasant impressions.
