Peterhof Palace and Gardens
Plan a separate excursion for Peterhof's palace-and-garden ensemble outside the central city. Decide in advance how much of the visit should be outdoors.
Peterhof expresses Peter the Great's ambitions through a planned relationship between palace buildings and extensive gardens. Later architects added to the ensemble, so it is useful to look for changes in scale and style across the site. The grounds are a major part of the experience; check seasonal features and museum arrangements before traveling.
