St. Petersburg is located in the delta of the Neva River, and we can say that the city is located on islands. But in everyday speech "islands" are usually called three islands in the north of the city. At the beginning of the city's history, these islands were a countryside. The city surrounded these islands and further to the north, behind the islands, new areas have grown. But these three islands have preserved some features of the dacha area to this day. They are partly built up with mansions, which arose on the site of old summer houses. In addition, large areas of the three islands are occupied by parks.

In the center of the Kamenny Island (Stone Island) there is an old park called «Quiet Rest». Old willows grow on the shore of one of the ponds. I walked in this park in September, and there were almost no signs of autumn. But the tree crowns themselves looked so beautiful that I took a few photos.
