The embankment of Onega Lake , the rest on which is something special. This can be said the city's business card. There and all monuments-gifts from sister cities, and attractions. And all the sculptures are made in a special style, so this embankment has a kind of charm. Attractions in Petrozavodsk on the waterfront are usually a place for recreation of residents and visitors of the city on weekends and in the evenings. It can not be said that these are modern and so loved by children entertainment facilities. Attractions in Petrozavodsk on the waterfront are still from those times. They are certainly arranged, painted and neat, but for some age and characteristic squeaks can be a serious reason to think. But to plunge into this almost retro atmosphere is still worth it.
