the building all together it's just beautiful and this museum is in front of. we had a great tour guide and she's shown us just a small piece of it but a small piece we've seen is just incredible we have a private tour and i think it's better we can see a few more things get better understand. things they always ask a lot of. the palace boasts almost two thousand windows and over a thousand elegantly and largest decorated pools many of which are open to the public. it is estimated that to see the exhibits in the home it's hard to have to move twenty five miles perhaps even move fascinating at least for those interested in russia's glory days it's not just the senses of the exhibits illuminating brushes imperial past also the rundown of the hermitage treasures would be complete without mentioning the museum still in collections of western european art which

states with thirteenth century onwards michelangelo manet matisse. who's who of parts history. the whole of the first floor was designed in an eclectic stop by and they stuck inside the eight hundred fifty eight in serious here are just breasts taking it all he applies the northern territory of the small helmets and that the main focal point is this amazing peacock clock. from seven hundred ninety seven to the present day the peacock cloak has been one of the hematologist most famous exhibits the figures of a peacock called cool and all that form part of this elaborate fine piece of the team with mechanisms that set them in motion today so it's one of the few of its size still in working condition. to see how fast everybody was but it's really interesting to see so many people from different places gathered together to see something so unique very beautiful

especially when you keep the turnaround as it made me even see the famous collection of antiquities including a large number of gold artifacts. bracelets rings earrings and male and female clothing decorations. lived surrounded by wealth and luxury. here date back to the fourth millennium b.c. gold in russia became popular liberia and the black sea the wealth and of course it's high and abundance of gemstones the spot behind the splendor of york in courts while in your precious stones were only on ladies' clothes in russia men rivaled women unself the. dignitaries with gold and diamonds only in russia russian and western painting sculpture applied prehistoric period to the early twentieth century is displayed in hundreds of holes if you do visit. or

a group of. calls information. languages is true is given a number which you press when entering you would simply be lost without a guide of some sort in the. one of the highlights of the museum is the collection of paintings by leonardo da vinci called madonna and child it was rumored to be painted in the land where the artist lived in eighty two the image shows a beat. child personification of maternal love. not a left in the world today only. i felt. very famous voice beauty and it was a challenge i remember from my books and textbooks at school. for the first time. one of the best even if you were not in our story and only be impressed with what

has on offer as a museum and a grand palace and a visit to the state how much more she said petersburg is so. thing you will never forget. leaving the hermitage now let's continue our journey crossing the street to the riverside next to the hermitage and you'll see various boat stands and a large jetty this is where we'll catch a hundred for boat to peterhof the journey takes twenty minutes and is much faster than travelling by car or train you can see on final destination they are the only have to travel around the entire coastline to get to the world part in a state taking a boat or fast food to the area called put to rest because the journey time down considerably. here we are.

just in it was about it because of all the state museum reserved peterhof is a big complex machine to use the palace of peter the great instrument the alexandria park upper and lower parks and peterhof and also parks and palaces in all ramey and by each year more than four million tourists visit peterhof on the area is named one of the wonders of russia when you plan your visit here make sure you got the whole day just early enjoy it this is silly. in my opinion this is one of the most players taking sides in russia. the passing part of peterhof often referred to as the brushing aside. the french palace was the inspiration for peter the great desire to build a similar complex in the suburbs of his new city the window to europe. peter hall which means peace is close in jail it is easy to leap up little pieces of ground to impress elizabeth who was at the expansion of the grand rapids.

peterhof was ravaged virtually destroyed by the german troops during the second world war it was one of the first to be resurrected and thanks to the work of military engineers never want. thousand volunteers to be a state's major structure has been fully restored by nine hundred forty seven the most famous founded on someone peterhof is the grandkids with dozens of water jets greatly missed breathtaking view surrounded by impressive gold statues at the center of the famous samson fountain resting in the jaws of a lion erected in the seven hundred thirty s. it was built to represent russia's victory over sweden. the grocer behind the great escape which is once used to policies contains the enormous pipes originally wooden the feet the fountains most visited a stack and when they were told the fountains were only to the use of gravity. it's really beautiful actually more so than we thought looking at photographs that we

saw people we came definitely worth a visit beautiful beautiful and it shows a lot of russian history i like it i think it's. tumbling it was built more than three hundred years ago and it's just awesome and i love the alleyways and the and all the parks and fountains. and for example the sea is not just because it's very very. spectacular parkland piece of house is remarkable for the shia variety of styles encompassed its layout and features a walk around the gardens is a must for every visitor. representing nearly two centuries of european socratic fashion execute to the high standards beautiful things like an encyclopedia of design. remember to bring your camera and also note that the price of machine is not included when you pay if you harder for john to. come rain or shine
