Nevsky Prospect, Main avenue in Tsentralny District, Saint Petersburg, Russia.

Nevsky Prospect extends 4.5 kilometers from the Admiralty building to the Alexander Nevsky Monastery, passing through the center of Saint Petersburg.

The construction of this central road began in 1711, connecting the Admiralty shipyard to the trading route that led to Moscow and Novgorod.

The street contains architectural elements from multiple periods, including the Kazan Cathedral, Russian National Library, and numerous commercial buildings.

Metro stations Nevsky Prospect, Gostiny Dvor, and Mayakovskaya provide direct access to different sections of the avenue throughout the day.

Four bronze horse sculptures guard the Anichkov Bridge, depicting the stages of horse taming by a man in classical Greek style.
