Royal Fountain parc of Peterhof

Unique northern landscape and seascape, European architecture and ingenious fountain system make for the perfect outing into culture and history.

Russian Royal Family decided to locate their country summer residences in the southern vicinity of the northern capital.
During the days of tsarist Russia only invited guests could get admission to the beautiful parks and palaces of Peterhof and Pushkin (Tsarskoye Selo), nowadays they are open to any tourist.
