Part-1 of Scarlet sails 2011. St.-Petersburg has a phenomenal romantic holiday of the graduates of the students and schoolboys, or cadets (show of celebrating the end of school year). Yes, only ship of dream can have Scarlet sails. But to understand character of holiday it is necessary to read the book of most romantic and very much the Petersburg's Russian writer Alexander Grin the "Scarlet Sails"! This tradition began in town survivor after a Siege and the end of WWII, when graduating students of several schools united to celebrate the ending of a school year in connection with symbolism of the popular before WWII children's book Scarlet Sails by Alexander Grin. Therefore a "Ship of dream" with scarlet sails was sailing along the English Embankment and the Admiralty Embankment towards the Winter Palace. So the "Scarlet Sails" tradition eventually evolved into a massive demonstration of freedom from "schools and rules" and became the most popular public event ever since, celebrating the ending of school year annually. The Scarlet Sails is a celebration in St-Petersburg, Russia is the most massive and famous public event during the White Nights Festival.
