Park And Gardens of Peterhof

Reviewed By Graham_Crieff - Crieff, United Kingdom

About 40 minutes outside St Petersburg this opulent garden park / summer palace is well worth a visit - with around 150 separate fountains including some "trick" fountains it is an amazing experience - the gold statues and water features blend into something truly wonderful - do not miss if in St Petersburg

Peterhof  State Museum Preserve

Reviewed By souffle00 - California, United States

The Peterhof Palace is closed on Monday and the last Tuesday of every month. As the hydrofoil was not operating in November, we took uber near the Church of Our Savior on Spilled Blood to Peterhof Palace and it cost slightly less than 700 roubles. It was important to select Peterhof Palace and not just Peterhof on the screen. It was about 1.5 hour ride. For the return trip from the Peterhof Palace to the St Nicholas Naval Church, it cost 598 roubles (heavy traffic throughout). The combined ticket online for the palace and the Special Treasury was 1100 roubles and it is cheaper if they are purchased at the ticket counter. The other attractions were only opened during the weekends during winter. The fountains in the lower park had closed since October for winter and thus entrance was free during this period (November when we were there). The park still looked good in pictures even though the trees were bare and there was no water in fountain. Audio guide is not available in English. We first visited the cloak room to deposit our coats and then put on the mandatory paper shoes. Just like the Catherine Palace, the Peterhof Palace has similar grand ballrooms with glittering gold trimmings all over too. We saw state dining rooms, study of Peter the Great, dressing room, etc. Photography was not allowed inside. There were some short descriptions in English for some of the halls. The Special Treasury is small but not to be missed. It is located in a separate building.
