St. Petersburg is named for its founder, Peter the Great, who constructed the city to be a “window on Western Europe”. With its sweeping boulevards, large public spaces and decorative monuments, the city is a picturesque combination of Western and Eastern European charm. The historic city-center of St. Petersburg was the first Russian locale to be designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is the northernmost city in the world with a population greater than one million, besting its Scandinavian neighbors Helsinki, Stockholm, Aberdeen and Oslo. The 2007 RUSSOFT Forum will be held during the annual period known as the ‘white nights’, which occurs because of the city’s location just south of the Arctic Circle, and is characterized by a state of twilight that lasts through the night from May to July.
