Plan for the weekend: go to St. Petersburg, find interesting books, admire the bay, test 5G
Spending a weekend in St. Petersburg is one of the best ideas you can think of. The city is beautiful at any time of the year, but the "golden" autumn is a particularly good moment. Peter is good because you can always find something new.
The charm of St. Petersburg lies in the fact that the city gives you the opportunity to enjoy solitude, you just have to turn off the main streets
But in order not to be bored, you can always find a cat. Although he, unlike me, was definitely not happy with such a company
If you have already visited all the museums, and you know the Hermitage like the back of your hand, then why not, for example, walk through the bookstores of St. Petersburg? And I'm not talking about retail, but about local bookstores. Unlike large stores designed for the mass market, here they rely on unusual books. Having gone on my last trip to Word Order on the Fontanka, I unexpectedly left with the History of DJs, which tells about the evolution of the profession from record collectors to the main “engines” of the music scene.An excellent book that will be of interest even to those who are far from dance music. Another book I bought is The Civilization of Odors. XVI – the beginning of the XIX century”, dedicated to the history of smell in Western Europe: what bizarre and dangerous drugs were used several centuries ago to restore beauty, what immodest poems poets dedicated to the intimate parts of the body, how doctors tried to defeat the plague with the help of strong aromas. This is a book by the leading French cultural historian Robert Mushemble.
There are many bookstores in St. Petersburg, often there are cozy coffee shops in the neighborhood, and while it's not too cold outside, you can enjoy a hot book coffee and a good view. You can stumble upon local bookstores just walking around the city, but a team of enthusiasts from Subscription Editions (also a good shop!) came up with a map called the Book Center of St. Petersburg. They missed something, but it's even better. There is room for discovery.
You can view the map in more detail by clicking on the picture
You should definitely visit Erarta. There, in addition to contemporary art, there are interesting photo exhibitions until November. For example, you can go to the masters of modern Japanese photography and not reach them, turning to "Ten years behind the scenes of the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show." By the way, an exhibition of Harry Benson has recently begun, in general, he specialized in the Beatles, but the exhibition has a lot of simple photographs taken in the 60-90s of the 20th century. There are Donald Trump, and Arnold Schwarzenegger, and just photos of the era.
Well, after Erarta, since you are on Vasilevsky Island, you should definitely visit Sevkabel.
Sevkabel is the story of how a former factory was transformed into a cultural space. You need to come there to sit comfortably and admire the view of the bay, have a tasty snack, maybe go on boats and definitely have fun.
This, by the way, is a DC generator that worked for half a century in the laboratory of the Sevkabel plant
And more recently, Beeline has also been responsible for entertainment on the territory of Sevkabel. Together with Nokia and Qualcomm, the operator launched a 5G pilot zone in St. Petersburg. If you love technology, then you should definitely visit Sevkabel. The Beeline zone will work until September 27, that is, including the next weekend.
But before talking about technology and 5G, let me invite you to subscribe to Beeline Instagram. It is not about communication generations and gigabytes, but about beauty. Each post is an aesthetic pleasure.
But let's not digress from the main topic! We have already seen 5G zones in Moscow more than once, but the main highlight of the project in St. Petersburg is the temporary permission received by Beeline for the use of frequencies in the millimeter range (26-28 GHz). In the millimeter range, the highest speeds. Usually, when they demonstrate incredible 5G speeds of a couple of gigabits per second, it is millimeter-wave.
It is also of interest that commercial Nokia equipment was used in the zone, including a system module and active antenna systems 5G AirScale and a 5G / Wi-Fi router based on the Qualcomm Snapdragon X55 modem radio system. In simple terms, almost everything is ready for the introduction of 5G networks. And it is quite likely that Beeline will be among the leaders in this direction. The company has long and persistently upgraded its network, making it 5G-Ready. By the way, during the past self-isolation, Beeline did not waste time in vain and carried out an additional set of measures to strengthen mobile and fixed networks. For example, to expand power and increase speed, additional aggregation of LTE bands and additional 2G refarming were carried out to increase the capacity of LTE 1800 MHz, and 4×4 MIMO mode was activated at all base stations operating in the 1800, 2100 and 2600 MHz frequency bands. Not to mention that every quarter the operator installs several hundred new base stations.
Beeline has figured out how to really demonstrate all the advantages of 5G – high network speed and capacity, as well as low latency – a lot of games and gadgets for them are available in the 5G zone. Beeline relatively recently launched the Beeline Gaming cloud gaming service, which allows you to run games on ultra settings on any device – even a computer, even a tablet or smartphone.
At the same time, a shooter with free movement around the virtual field. Some of the locations of the virtual world are specially designed to look like the Beeline site in the Sevkabel space. This combination of technologies creates an immersive experience for players and allows them to move freely without unnecessary wires and bulky equipment.
Of course, this kind of game requires a powerful channel and a very high data transfer rate, as well as low latency. This is important, if only because users of active VR games may experience discomfort associated with the work of the vestibular apparatus if there is a delay in displaying the image, and the system does not respond quickly enough to the actions of the player in the real world. 5G technology completely eliminates such situations due to low latency and full synchronization between the image in the glasses and the response to user actions, and also provides a clear synchronization between the players and each interaction object.
And for simply participating in routes and contests, you can get bonus points by exchanging them for nice prizes – ride a bike, a beautiful yellow raincoat (relevant for St. Petersburg), a yoga mat or a beautiful water bottle.
In conclusion, we can only say that do not waste time, while for the next 2 weeks in St. Petersburg it is still +18 and there is little rain (but do not forget the umbrella anyway!)

By the way, if you were wondering which gamepad to buy for your smartphone or tablet, then a great option is to come to Sevkabel and test it at the Beeline stand.
Most likely, in the future, people will abandon powerful home machines and take full advantage of the fast Internet. So visiting the 5G zone is also a way to look into the near future.
In addition to traditional games, Beeline was not too lazy and set up a VR zone. It is best to go to the VR zone with friends, because there, in my opinion, the most interesting game is the “shooter” from District Zero Studios. Players are divided into teams, put on virtual helmets, and shooting each other begins.
At the same time, a shooter with free movement around the virtual field. Some of the locations of the virtual world are specially designed to look like the Beeline site in the Sevkabel space.

George Held, Executive Vice President for Digital and New Business Development at Beeline, said well about 5G and gaming:
“Already today, Beeline Gaming makes computer games accessible to everyone. It's nice to surprise by opening up new opportunities for customers – it's so easy, without obligatory equipment upgrades and significant financial costs, to play the most modern and demanding games. We at Beeline are very pleased that we have made previously inaccessible games available to millions of people. With the advent of 5G technologies, gaming will become even easier – even more users with devices that support Beeline Gaming now will receive a mobile connection sufficient for comfortable gaming anytime, anywhere.
By the way, to plan activities, you can register on the Beeline portal. There are a lot of interesting things there, and if you can’t get to St. Petersburg, then you should look into the zone on the territory of VDNKh. The benefit of the bee2gether portal is that you can find interesting routes there, so that it would be tasty, and take beautiful photos, and take a walk. So, "Beeline" offers a photo route – a path through six photogenic locations of the Port. Or, for example, a bike tour around Vasilevsky Island, describing it as “the most beautiful and longest route that you can ride a bike.”
And for simply participating in routes and contests, you can get bonus points by exchanging them for nice prizes – ride a bike, a beautiful yellow raincoat (relevant for St. Petersburg), a yoga mat or a beautiful water bottle.
