The square contains multiple monuments, including the central equestrian statue of Nicholas I and the monumental Saint Isaac's Cathedral.

The square links to major transport routes and accommodates the Legislative Assembly of Saint Petersburg in the Mariinsky Palace.

The Blue Bridge crossing the Moika River measures 97.3 meters wide, making it the widest bridge in Saint Petersburg.
