We’re thinking of visiting Russia in May or June, why doesn’t Russia have its own Thread on DDF? And if it does where would I find it?  (I know about the Russia/Ukraine Thread it’s mainly Ukraine Kivrei Tzadikim and not very helpful for Russia)

Any recommendations for Shabbos stay, Moscow vs Saint Petersburg? They both have very accommodating Kosher centers.

St Regis Moscow is nice and close to choral synagogue for shabbos and a lot of walkable sites.

St. Petersburg is supposed to be a beautiful city with lots of culture.  Moscow hadn’t got much to see. 
I would guess St. Petersburg is better for Shabbos.
