Let's have a nice thread. No insults or hateful comment towards other countries or individuals. Nothing but nice comments.
I've only been to Mexico and America, so I don't have much to contribute, but I can rightfully say that both countries have great food, women and museums, and I'm sure France, Brasil, Japan, Korea and most other countries do to some extend, too!
Both are pretty much the same tho. Sepharadim are just Jews that were kicked from Spain 500 years ago and lived since then in Muslim countries. Mizrahim are Jews who always lived in Muslims countries. Both of these groups behave in an identical way and the only differences maybe be located in Religious ceremonies or something.
St. Petersburg. I've been there 2 years ago, it's an absolutely gorgeous place with amazing people!
Pic related is the grand Kazan Cathedral where an ancient Orthodox icon is located there and the burial site of General Kutuzov that faught Napoleon.
Ah, yeah, I think I heard about it on a documentary about Peter The Great. It seems like he ordered his architects to emulate some other monument in Germany for this and some other wonders built under his reign. He considered Germany to be a highly sophisticated place and even changed the Russian army uniform of the time to another color to emulate those of the Germans. I wish I can visit both countries someday.
