Vyborg is preparing to become the tourist capital of the region

For the period of the non-working week from October 30 to November 7, Petersburg will not be the most pleasant place for tourists because of the locaun. Its place may take Vyborg, where there will be much less prohibitions. As the sink78 found out, the demand for this city has already managed to jump.

Vyborg is located on the territory of the Leningrad region, and therefore all the same rules and restrictions as in the city as throughout the region will apply in a non -working week. They won’t enter the Lockdown there, and the QR codes system will work only after November 15-so for now you can rest there without extra worries, the main thing is not to forget to take with you. It will not be possible to compare with St. Petersburg, where on the same days at all, except for the grocery store, it will be impossible to go.

At the same time, Vyborg has long won the glory of the city of tourist: there you can admire medieval European architecture, look at the oldest residential building in Russia, and just change the situation. So crowds of citizens will go to this city quite expectedly.

However, in a conversation with a sink correspondent78, the hotel staff could not give a definite answer whether such a boom of popularity is related to the inability to leave to relax to other regions.

At the Atlantic hotel, the sink correspondent confirmed: the numbers at non -working week have become much more often.

«We now have numbers only from November 1, certain categories, – said the hotel employee.

The private sector also encountered customers boom: on Avito, if you set filters for dates that coincide with a non -working week, there will be much smaller options for daily housing. And you will have to pay much more for them – at the weekend.

According to Anna, who has been renting housing in Vyborg for not the first year, during the autumn school holidays, demand is usually increasing, and this year interest in Vyborg has increased even more:

«A lot of people who want to remove these days. True, few people take off for the whole week-as a rule, for two or three days they take everything, – said Anna in an interview with a sink78

Recall that in St. Petersburg, from October 30 to November 7, catering will only be able to operate or delivery, it is forbidden to conduct cultural and entertainment measures.
