  • Shopping in a cultural capital should be special. Why not start with «House Books»? The building at the intersection of the Nevsky and the Griboyedov Canal, which is occupied by the store, which once belonged to the concern «Singer». It was built with the latest technological advances and elaborately decorated. After the events of 1918, the beautiful building was transferred to Petrogosizdat. The bookstore is located on two floors, and the publishing house itself is on the upper floors. The store did not stop working even during the terrible days of the siege of Leningrad.
