Read the text and name three things that are different in moscow and st petersburg. moscow and st petersburg are the most important cities of russia. they stand on the banks of two rivers — the moskva and the neva. the two cities have a lot of places of interest, theatres, museums and picture galleries. in their streets and squares there are a lot of beautiful buildings. they have some wonderful green parks. but what makes them different? st petersburg is younger than moscow: tzar peter the great founded it in 1703. prince dolgoruky lived in moscow as early as in 1147, in the 12th century. in st petersburg there are a lot of bridges but there is no kremlin. more people live in moscow than in st petersburg, and its streets are busier, the territory of moscow is larger. st petersburg is a large sea port because it is situated near the baltic sea. moscow has only river ports. the climate in st petersburg is different from the climate in moscow: the city has more nasty and rainy days. there are some symbols of moscow: the tsar bell in the kremlin, spasskaya tower and st basil’s cathedral. st petersburg has some symbols too — the monument to peter the great on a horse and smolny cathedral.
