St. Petersburg, Russia

It's hard to believe a city boasting so much great art and architecture is "only" 309 years old. (To put this in perspective, Newark, N.J., has been around a few decades longer than Saint Petersburg.) Towering cathedrals and ornate palaces fill Saint Petersburg, and the State Hermitage Museum, located in the Winter Palace, houses some of the world's greatest works of art.
