The brilliant panorama of the palace is the hallmark of St. Petersburg. The number of palaces, their beauty and the luxury of the interiors amaze the imagination. From the very foundation of St. Petersburg, the royal family, rich aristocratic families, and high-ranking officials lived here.
Behind the magnificent facades of the palaces, the stories of important events in Russia and the destinies of people are hidden. During the walking tour, you will see palaces of different eras and styles and learn about the secrets of their famous owners.
Our immersion into the brilliant world of the St. Petersburg nobility will begin with a visit to the first stone palace of the Northern capital, the Menshikov Palace.
His Serene Highness did not skimp on creating this masterpiece of Peter the Great Baroque, and today we can admire the preserved interiors, as if taking us back to the era of lavish balls and grandiose plans.
And then we will have an excursion to the real treasury — the Gold or Diamond Storeroom of the Hermitage. This unique gallery of jewels, which grew out of the personal collection of the Russian Imperial family, impresses the imagination with its wealth and brilliance.
It contains masterpieces from all over the world, from artifacts from ancient civilizations to exquisite creations of the early 20th century — a kaleidoscope of cultures, eras and techniques that one cannot help but admire.
