catherine palace and park

下车走不远，就看到一片金灿灿的树林，这是叶卡捷琳娜花园的外侧。金秋时节真是来Pushkin参观最好的季节了。叶宫花园游览图 花园和宫殿分别售票，两处票价一共450卢布。宫殿10点开始允许游客进入，一次能进入的人数有限，我们赶在第一批入宫参观。宫内装饰富丽奢华，浪漫典雅叶宫有两层，可以参观的房间有二十多间，和大多数皇家宫殿一样，有会客室、宴会厅、起居室、卧室、书房等等。叶宫在二战中曾遭德军破坏，现在看到的大多都是后来修复的，但也可以想象出曾经的华丽。叶卡捷琳娜二世像中国厅的丝绢墙壁绘画厅叶宫的餐馆路线都是规定好的，按照提示参观下来需要1个多小时。我们出来后，发现排队等候入内的游客很多很多…叶宫花园的景致也不容错过，我们围着花园绕了一大圈不得不说，秋天是参观叶卡捷琳娜花园的最好时节。茂密的树林错落有致，色彩斑斓，加上那天的蓝天白云，在这样的花园里漫步，真是令人神清气爽。

如果你觉得你见过了圣彼得堡宫殿的所有富贵辉煌,当你到了凯瑟琳宫的时候,你需要重新考虑一下了!不仅宫殿本身很巨大,公园面积也很大。有很多的小亭子散布在这250英亩的土地上,你需要花一整天的时间逛这个地方。一定要找一位导游,不然你会错过一些地方,或者了解的不是那么多。

这是一个恢复的很漂亮的宫殿,里面的花园也很美。去这儿参观最好带个导游,并且要提前预定行程,因为这里只有特定的时段是让散客进入的,而且排的队还特别长。这里著名的琥珀宫简直是美极了。

就是排队毁了一切。我不得不承认,在银行假期来这里,简直是活受罪,我们为了进入公园,整整排了2个小时的队伍!

评论之前:如果你想进入这家博物馆,一定提前预定导游!如果你自己进去,会面对前门近两个小时的等待!你看到的宫殿会是一个全新的宫殿,因为它二战后重新修复了。这种想法要感谢一些人,他们劝说了苏联为了后代着想应该保留这个地方。参观真的感觉太棒了,因为1楼的18世纪感觉修复的非常完美。注意一下主厅罕见的中国陶器。琥珀室更是别出心裁,独一无二,还有蓝色彩陶炉!你会看到很多黄金,门面每隔3年修复一次,因为天气的原因,如果你想看它金碧辉煌的样子,得选择一个好天过来参观。不要忘了花园,这个是一定要有的,散步去湖边,有中国的宝塔,再走路去法国花园。参观花园和博物馆需要2到3小时。享受;-)

查的资料是周二和每个月最后一个周一关闭，门票总共约420P 。离市区较远，但皇村真的很美。我们是在Moskovskaya station蓝线坐小巴N286去的，下车后跟着人流走即可。宫殿跟夏宫一样大气，大宴会厅奢华，卧室柔美，几个青花大壁炉价值连城。唯一不足是俄国几乎都是俄语讲解，只能凭看了。花园郁郁葱葱，雨后特别清爽

This impressive building inside and out. With its impressive amber room. The palace should be on everyone's list when visiting St. Petersburg.

The Catherine Palace is an essential stop if you are visiting St Petersburg. There is only one time to go and that is EARLY to beat the crowds. We visited in February 2013 which is not peak season and were the first to enter with our private guide (very worthwhile if you are visiting Catherine Palace - we used Polina Volkova). We had the pleasure of being the first into many of the rooms so got some amazing photos. Eventually the crowd streams through and even in February you will find it crowded by mid-morning.The amber room is impressive, but it was the history shared by our guide that really made this an amazing visit. The palace was almost totally destroyed by the Germans in WW2 and there are some interesting photos from the time. For example, the Germans having taken Catherine Palace taking their own tourist shots, the palace after it was destroyed (no roof, walls blown apart, artwork looted or ruined), and even a photo of a bomb the size of a small truck meant to detonate after they left but which didn't go off.The destruction of Catherine Palace lead to a major restoration effort. At the time, there were limited people with the skills or experience to do the work. This resulted in the education and development of people in restoration work to the point St Petersburg is now renown for its skills in this field.The parklands are wonderful to stroll through, particularly in the beautiful snow. Allow plenty of time and this was a better place to visit that Peterhof if you are there in winter as Peterhof's fountains are all closed down.I've seen palaces throughout Europe (England, Spain, France, Italy) and nothing compares to Catherine Palace.

Really enjoyed the palace and park. The grounds were immaculate and gorgeous. Palace was in the original form. Tour guide followed me into the men's room. Would go again.

One has to see it to believe the beauty of the palace....It is an architecture wonder....Very beautiful....Worth the visitU can't miss it...

We went there intrigued by legend of the 'amber chamber'. Looks cool in the picutures in the Internet. However, when you see it 'live' it may be not so impressive. Considering time to get there may be not the best decision if you are short of days.

Opulence, opulence and yet more opulence! The Amber Room is rightly world famous and totally unique. A delightful place to visit and highly recommended.

This palace is grand. It was a delight to go through many rooms and finally see the Amber Room. It is a sad page of history that it had to be reconstructed, but I am glad to see what they have done.

a really nice place where you can see what power could achieve at that time, and all the world's best architecture at the time being applied in Catherine's palace. I advise to rent a car to go because it takes less time and is less costly. negative points: when i visited it was under reform and some rooms were not available to visit and the people inside do not speak English. Also since it was winter, the park was not as nice as in summer...

In the UK we think that Buckingham Palace is impressive, the Catherine Palace makes it look like a weekend cottage !!!!A lot of Russian people and general tourist visit so is a bit crowded , the rooms are vast , and you see more gold on the walls , ceilings etc , and when you consider that it was destroyed and rebuilt after the 2nd World War to as it was before it is amazing, lots of newly weds use the rooms , stair cases for wedding photo's trying to hide the plastic over shoes you have to wear to protect the floors , the main room is still used for concerts and is about 300 foot long by a 150 feet wide, and a ceiling height of about 70 feet , which is painted with angels and cherubs , I gather that Elton John used the room for a concert and the piano had to be airlifted and come via the roof , with the ceiling painting rolled back at a cost of £1 million pounds for a 100 people to hear the concert.
