Peterhof Holidays of Fountains
« on: September 05, 2012, 06:46:06 AM »
S. Piterbourg 14-15 September 2012 Laser show.
Peterhof Parks, Fountains and Cascades were founded at the best hours of Russia, at a time when "barokko" reigned in Russian architecture and Peter the Great opened the Window to Europe, at a time, when new aesthetics of architectural ensembles belonging to Peter the Great was born and when the holiday-stroll was born together with new Russian traditions.











It is just amazing!

I've only been there in the daytime, luckily on a day like the first photo.  It is a truly awesome experience, and an absolute must-see if you go to St Petersburg.  I got the hydrofoil from the city to the Palace wharf, but went back to town on the bus which stops outside the top gates.
