Our 2nd day in Saint Petersburg will be dedicated to a journey to the stunning and colorful Catherine Palace which is situated in the touristy town of Pushkin.
| Catherine Palace (Witnessing Imagination) |
This lavishing palace has simply been described as incredible and magnificent according to many past tourists and close friends of mine (ranked 4th best attraction in Saint Petersburg). As a matter of fact it's been visited by Bill Clinton, Sting, Tina Turner, and other top celebrities (you can include my dad and I now). Also, Elton John actually held a concert here in 2001. Although this attraction is roughly 45 minutes away from our hotel, my father and I will commute via taxi (remember we crave adventures). Our specific route is illustrated below...

Finally, our shot today will be taken inside the Catherine Palace (hopefully we don`t get in trouble) in honor of the absolute ROYALTY it's clearly associated with!
Cheers from Saint Petersburg!
