...White Nights." For most tourists, Leningrad, the old czarist capital of St. Petersburg and cradle of the Revolution, with its superb setting on the Neva River, is the handsomest city in the Soviet Union. Number one draw is the Hermitage Museum, which contains a dazzling art collection of nearly 3,000,000 works that includes a whole room of Rembrandts, and the world's finest assemblage of Gauguins, Matisses and early Picassos.
