Peterhof (Petrodvorets)

by eksvist - last update: Apr 22, 2008

Peterhof is perhaps St. Petersburg's most famous and spectacular Imperial estate.

It is a municipal town within Petrodvortsovy District of the federal city of Saint Petersburg on the southern shore of the Gulf of Finland.
It hosts one of two campuses of Saint Petersburg State University.
A series of palaces and gardens, laid out on the orders of Peter the Great, and sometimes called the "Russian Versailles", is also situated there. The palace-ensemble along with the city center is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

In Peterhof you can visit the palace or gardens, where is hundred of fountains. I think it is a magnificent view ...
Beside the gates of Peterhof there are several counter tables, where you can to buy souvenirs. It's more like the market ....

 The park is fabulous but I wasn't too impressed by the palace. The metro is the worst place for pickpockets. They tried but didn't succeed and I watched them doing it to someone in front of me.
