Hermitage, The House of History (my own term) is situated in the heart of the city of St. Petersburg. Full name of the building is The State Hermitage Museum. Hermitage holds the largest collection of art and culture from ancient to medieval and modern times. Empress Catherine the Great founded it in 1764. It was an overwhelming experience for me to go through different periods of human history by looking at the pieces of paintings, sculptures and pottery; just to name a few. The historical city of St. Petersburg is the most suited city for the Hermitage building which owns the rarest pieces of art and culture from various civilizations of the world.
