Peter and Paul Fortress

“Russian Versailles” – Petrodvorets, world-famous for its fountains, Imperial country palaces in Pavlovsk and Tsarskoe Selo – these are only a few of the artistic gems that you will see during your visit to Saint-Petersburg.

 Czars, architectural styles, traditions followed one another for 3 centuries, but there has always been something that united different epochs and styles: the impression of wholeness, architectural taste, elegance and special atmosphere of Saint-Petersburg.

You will feel this very well during you trip to Saint-Petersburg.
