	St.Petersburg Environs. English version
		The majority of literary sources begin their description of St. Petersburg's surroundings with the taking of Nienshantz and the year 1703.
		Even in the best case, only the Oreshek Fortress, the Stolbovo peace treaty, and Prince Aleksandr Nevskij's battle at the mouth of the Izhora river will be mentioned.
		Here the historians seem unintentionally to forget that when Peter I came to create his window on the West, he arrived not at a deserted swampy shore, but at a place where fortresses had been standing for 500 years prior.
