CASINOS
St. Petersburg's high-brow history didn't keep out the flood of gaudy gambling establish-
ments embraced by post-Soviet Russia. Slot machines are found in places you least expect
them, including upscale restaurants and shops. Casinos however were set to shut down
sometime in 2009 in an effort to clean up the shady business that often goes hand-in-
hand.
