You will reach the residence directly from the center of St. Petersburg on a modern bus, saving you from transfers or adjusting to train schedules. Thanks to this excursion, you will have the opportunity to visit the Grand Peterhof Palace and the Lower Park with fountains together with a guide.
Peterhof is the country residence of Russian emperors, founded by Peter I in the early 18th century on the shore of the Gulf of Finland. It was created as a ceremonial palace center of the new capital and as a symbol of Russia's maritime power.
The total area of the museum-reserve is about 400 hectares. It includes the Upper Garden and the Lower Park, and the central dominant of the ensemble is the Grand Peterhof Palace, stretching along the terrace for almost 300 meters.
The layout of Peterhof is subject to strict geometry, perspectives, and symbolism of power. The ensemble unites architecture, water, and landscape into a single composition, considered one of the most impressive in Europe.
