Today, we visited two universities, St. Petersburg State University and Pavlov First St. Petersburg State Medical University. St. Petersburg State University is one of the most prestigious university in Russia because it is famous as the university which Putin, Lenin, Tolstoy and others enrolled. We visited the museum of college, and it seemed that there have been elaborate lectures. For example, in physics, professor used actual models to explain the way of moving wheel.

At Pavlov First St. Petersburg State Medical University, we had presentations to introduce our universities each other. I was surprised at some differences between Russia and Japan. For example, not only nursing students but also medical students learn Introduce to Nursing science. It’s because doctors should communicate with patients. I thought Russian students are so diligent. Now, there are 5,000 students including about 1,000 foreign students in this university. Why don’t you study medicine in Russia?

After that, we went to St. Isaac’s Cathedral. Its ceiling was so beautiful, and I liked it.
