Viipuri is the original name of Russian town Vyborg. Well, we don't think that Vyborg must be passed back into the hands of Finland, but all signboards and inscriptions in this town are duplicated in Finnish, so that if inhabitants want... Anyway we found there something interesting except famous Vyborgsky Castle (Viipurin Linna) with St. Ulof' tower (Pyhän Olavin torni).



Leningradsky Prospect (Karjalankatu), 19. See the façade of this building.
