Rostral columns for the first time lit in St. Petersburg on the Day of National Unity

Russia will celebrate National Unity Day on November 4. The northern capital will traditionally join the celebrations, and the main visual focus of the holiday will be the first-ever launch of illumination on the Rostral Columns. About it writes “Petersburg diary”.

In addition to the main symbols of the city on the Neva River, the solemn illumination decoration will be prepared for the Palace and Trinity Bridges. Special lighting will emphasize the architecture of the crossing.

According to media reports, lighting solutions will be an important part of the celebration program. They will help to immerse residents and tourists in a special atmosphere and make evening walks around the city center even more impressive and colorful.

Recall that the list of holidays, in honor of which the torches of the Rostral columns are lit, is constantly expanding. This year alone, six new dates have been added. For example, on the twelfth of September, the lights were already lit in honor of the Day of Transfer of the Relics of Alexander Nevsky and the Day of Nystadt Peace, and now the Day of National Unity will continue the tradition.
