I have always heard that if you can only visit one place in Russia it must be Saint Petersburg. After seeing that video there is no doubt that I will choose that city as a stop! To stand in that room must be an amazing feeling.
Vincent Pardieu recommended a book to me quite a while back called Buried Treasure : Travels Through the Jewellery Box by Victoria Finlay, and in this book the room of amber is discussed.
It feels great to see treasures like that preserved. As a part of the Russian cultural legacy it should be available to future generations. Bravo.
Thanks Jason!
