      🌳 Piskarevsky Park

      A forest park behind the Piskarevskoye Memorial: pines, blueberries and a pond with carp and swans.

      • The park covers 116 hectares, more than 80% of it forest, mostly pine and birch.
      • The forest was declared a suburban park in 1938, but the war interrupted its development.
      • During the Siege, the fuel and weapons depots of the Grazhdanka airfield were hidden in the forest — traces of trenches and revetments are still visible.
      • Ornithologists have counted more than 50 bird species in the park, including five species of woodpecker and the goshawk.
      • In 1975–1977 the USSR's first specialised football school, Smena, was built on the edge of the park.
