TRIVIA BITS ... STATE HERMITAGE MUSEUM

 

In St Petersburg, Russia stands the State Hermitage Museum built between 1754 and 1762. Walking the State Hermitage Museum’s gallery complex would involve visiting 365 rooms and 322 galleries – a journey of 15 miles (24 kms). It is said the gallery contains three million items and that it would take a year of non-stop visiting viewing to see the entire collection.
