Peterhof Russia

    The first sight  which I suggest to you is situated nearby Saint-Petersburg and it's called Peterhof Palace.I have been there several times and my opinion-this is the one of the most beautiful sightseeings in Russia.I have been  there in winter and summer but i suggest you to go there exactly in summer, in my further describtion you will see why.  
    This residence of Peter the First arose in the first quarter of XVII century. There are  several baroque ensembles and individual architectural and historical complexes combined in Peterhof.It's famous for constellation of palaces, collections, fountains and cascades.Currently there are fourteen parks opened for hiking and inspection which are stretched for more than ten kilometers along the coast.Their total area exceeds one thousand hectares.There are collection of exhibitions in the Grand Peterhof Palace,Montplaisir and Marly palaces. 
       
    Decoration of parks and facilities is a magnificent sculpture. Four stages and 150 existing fountains staggering.That is why Peterhof is usually referred to as the capital of fountains.For cases when Peter arrived by see the pier was built.Maybe there is still possebility to travel right to Snt.Petersburg by the see.If you wish to visit Peterhof, I suggest you to apply to travel agency, info about them you can find in google.
