In Pushkin Town:
A visit to the summer residence of the Russian tsars - Catherine Palace in the Russian baroque style, which is quite impressive with its size. It was completed during the reign of Empress Elizabeth (daughter of Peter I) in 1756 and named after her mother – Catherine I. The Palace is famous for the Amber Room. The Prussian king Friedrich I presented  22 amber panels to Peter I in 1716. After Catherine Palace walk through the French regular Catherine Park.

After lunch a visit to the Peterhof Fountain Park and walk through the gardens and fountains, which are called “Russian Versailles”. Beautiful fountains were created on the order of Peter the Great in imitation of the French fountains of Versailles. More than 150 fountains and cascades are located in the Peterhof Park.

The cathedral was built right on the territory of the fortress.
