An unmissable excursion from Saint Petersburg.
The huge park of Peterhof with its gardens, palaces and fountains is an incredible place and a perfect destination for an excursion from Saint Petersburg. This was the residence of the Russian emperor, or tsar if you like, until the revolution. It is included in the Unesco heritage list and I loved it in spite of a huge rain falling.
I visited Peterhof palace as part of my trip around the world. If you want to read further, you can find here below an article I wrote about it.
