Summer fun on the water can be easily transferred to the pool, if no rivers or lakes are foreseen nearby. Moreover, many of the pools continue to work during the heat and holidays.
In the summer heat, we are drawn to nature, to the cool water of lakes and rivers. But it is not always possible to escape from the stuffy city and plunge into the water of natural springs. Moreover, in St. Petersburg they often do not have time to warm up to normal temperature. Therefore, swimming pools become salvation for residents in the heat of summer.
Not every pool stays open in the summer, many go on vacation. Even if not from the very beginning of summer, most of St. Petersburg's swimming pools are closed in July and August.
