Departure to Tsars’ Village (Tsarskoye Selo),visit to the Catherine Palace. It is a fascinating example of the architecture and gardening. Peter the Great ordered to construct the small palace for his wife, future empress Catherine I. In the middle of the 18th century the palace was rebuilt and became the purl of that period architecture. The history of the palace is closely connected with Russian Empresses: Catherine I, Elisabeth I, and Catherine the Great.
Departure to Pavlovsk, visit of the Palace which was used as a summer residence of the Russian emperor Paul I and his family. The landscape park with different pavilions covers the area of 600 ha. The formation of the Pavlovsky Palace collections was closely connected with the trip of its owners around Europe. Paul I and his wife visited workshops of well–known artists, ordering and acquiring paintings, furniture, bronze articles, silk fabrics, china sets, etc. They brought to Russia large number of antique sculptures from Italy, as well as gifts from European royal courts. And now all these items are exhibited in the halls of the Palace. Troika riding in the park.
Lunch at the Russian cuisine restaurant Podvorje - most visitors are fascinated by the simplicity of the Russian wooden architecture and by the free and easy atmosphere inside. One cannot expect to find here the ornate features that are typical of classic restaurants. Instead, there is laughter, music, simple and hearty Russian dishes, bearskins and a spacious courtyard.
