The Pavlovsk Palace and Garden was a revelation. While the Catherine Palace buzzes with activity, the Pavlovsk Palace is an oasis of tranquility. We were told that the palace was built for Empress Catherine for her son, Paul when he was the heir apparent. The palace is not too ornate and gives the feeling that this was a royal family residence and not one built for formal, ceremonial purposes . The palace is set in a very green setting and is ideal for a relaxed visit far from the crowds
