Peter or Prague? ? and got a better answer
Response from Антон Владимирович[+++++]
prague. because i haven't been. because the climate is obviously nicer - there is no this humidity and insanely piercing winter wind. because history is longer than that of petersburg. and petersburg is a showcase in the full sense of the word. or even a port with stores. For once. when you walk everything about russia becomes clear and the second time it is already familiar, then Prague is a city in the sense that even people can live there. St. Petersburg and Prague have in common - mysticism and absurdity, praised in legends. Only in St. Petersburg it is from artificiality, but in Prague these legends are natural, grown from the natural urban environment. In this sense, Prague is even scarier than St. Petersburg: there is the Golem and Kafkaesque fears and the whole lot else. Peter, on the other hand, is simply dead and that's what makes all of his horror stories. As a result I don't like both cities. But if you have to choose between them, Prague is warmer: what is important for a Siberian-born person?

Moscow is the best city. The capital
Peter - because Russia:
Petersburg. Hometown, not abroad
Peter, period!
Of course it's Peter!
And where do you want to go yourself?
love both cities, even if I live near Moscow
I adore Peter. my favorite city. the people there are kind. everything is different there. and nature. the weather is always autumnal. the city of rain slush and mud. I adore it. melancholic. beautiful.
been to Prague - no. I like Peter madly but I don't understand the point of your question.
Prague.
Peter. Much better. And everybody speaks Russian.
Definitely Prague with their small streets and quiet life and the beautiful architecture.I love this city and am going there for the second time.
Why are you comparing them? Of course Prague is a beautiful city but what has Peter got to do with it? They are completely different! They even have completely different architectural features! I don't see the point in this silly comparison.
