What can be more typically Russian than a banya? This ancient bathhouse tradition is one of the most well-known symbols of the nation. The favorite venue of Lenin and Dostoevsky, the Yamskie bathhouse is among St. Petersburg’s most historic and popular places for a steam.

We will not rent a private banya, but will get the real Russian experience in a common bathhouse. Hopefully there will be some old babushka’s who will snarl us some useful comments how to properly behave in the bathhouse.

Closest metro: Dostoevskaya/Vladimirskaya
Participants: min. 5 – no max. Women only.
Costs: 360 rub. or 600 rub.

There are two options to choose from! We will go to the common banya with the most votes. Please indicate your choice in the sign up form below. Additional info about what to take with you and what to expect will be sent over after you signed up.

Deadline for signing up Monday the 11th.
