I returned a few days ago from a vacation/holiday in Russia. I hope you don't mind if I share a limited number of pictures from my trip.
St. Petersburg
Some of the State Hermitage Museum. It had an amazing collection of priceless artwork. The Winter Palace of the czar is the large blue/green colored building. The interior of the palaces were eye popping in their opulence and craftsmanship. The building with the gold dome is St. Issac's Cathedral.
Peter and Paul Fortress. Many of the Russian czars and czarinas are buried here. This is on the opposite side of the river from the Hermitage.
The interior of the church were the czars and czarinas are buried.
Church of the Savior on Spilled Blood. It was built to memorialize the death of Alexander II in 1881 at this location by a terrorist bomb.

Moscow
The metro (underground/subway) stations in Moscow are works of fine art. Many of them are decorated with Soviet propaganda scenes. They are very deep and were intended to be bomb shelters.
One of the churches at the Zagorsk monastery outside of Moscow.

One of the churches inside of the Kremlin.
St. Petersburg

There was a surprisingly high number of well-dressed and very pretty Russian women especially in Moscow. Some tended to dress a bit flashy and were wearing clothing more suitable for an evening at the clubs. Many wore very high heels and walked long distances even on rough cobble stones. My feet would have been screaming in pain after 30 minutes in some of those shoes. When I mentioned to my boyfriend about all of the pretty women, he said he didn't notice which meant he was lying. All I will say is he did a respectable job of not staring too much, thus staying out of major trouble.
One thing I did notice was many Russian women posed for pictures in the same slightly unnatural or fake style as those seen in the pictures used by the romance scammers. This happened whether a male or female was taking the picture. This leads me to believe there is an ample supply of pictures of pretty young Russian women in all of those interesting poses.
In St. Petersburg and Moscow, brides and their respective wedding parties along with decorated limos were a common sight during the entire day. Russian tradition is for the wedding party to visit all of the city landmarks and get their pictures taken. The wedding reception for family and friends follows afterwards. There seemed to be a lot of weddings on this past Friday then we realized it was August 8, 2008 ( 08/08/08 ) .
The guy in the jeans with his back turned was approaching all of the wedding parties at this site and playing goofy songs on his accordion. He was expecting tips for his playing. Perhaps the money was to get him to stop playing.

Good pics.
There's some wonderful sights in Russia.
You're correct about the underground (subway) stations.
Spotlessly clean and some wonderful architecture and art work within.
On another of your observations:
Quote: |
high number of well-dressed and very pretty Russian women |
I remarked on the fact that all the young ladies in a restaurant, with after-dinner dancing, were very beautiful and immaculately dressed.
I was told, by my Russian hosts, that all fat, ugly or poorly-dressed women stayed at home, because they get mocked when they are out. |
