Timeline
20:51
Start with a drink at Pub 357. It is just a short walk from the waterfront and opens at noon, so it is ready for your pre-sunset arrival. Order a wine or cocktail and enjoy the relaxed atmosphere.
21:36
Walk to Tuchkov Buyan. This palace-like warehouse complex sits on the bank of the Malaya Neva. The description notes it is best viewed from the opposite bank on Vasilievsky Island, so position yourself along the edge here to catch the full profile of the architecture.
22:06
Watch the sunset. On this date, the sun sets toward the NW. The golden light begins around 20:53, illuminating the white facades of the warehouses before the sky turns deep blue.
22:51
End the evening at Villaggio. This Italian restaurant is open 24/7 and is a short walk away, making it a reliable spot for a late dinner after the cool evening air.
Local tip
The view of Tuchkov Buyan is best from the water's edge. If the wind is strong, stand near the structure itself for shelter. Villaggio is open all night, so you do not need to worry about closing times.
