Entertainment, excursions and attractions of Tsarskoye Selo
The main thing that attracts crowds of curious tourists to Tsarskoe Selo is the famous Amber Room in the Catherine Palace. To admire it, most likely, will have to defend in a long queue. As you know, the original Amber Room, taken out by the fascists from occupied Pushkin, disappeared without a trace in Koenigsberg, before the entry of Russian troops into it. Restoration of the masterpiece took many years and required putting about 6 tons of amber into the business. But the palace itself is equally magnificent both outside and inside - which is only worth the grandiose Golden Suite of palace halls created by Rastrelli.
In the Catherine Park, which serves as a magnificent setting for a luxurious palace, many beautiful alleys, picturesque ponds and canals and remarkable buildings .Curious, for example, the history of the pavilion "The Hermitage" - its purpose was to spend time in a narrow circle, and in order to avoid the obsessive presence of servants, a cunning system of ordering for lunch .The slate board, on which each guest wrote his wishes on the menu, went down to the kitchen for a rope .And after the meal they went under the floor and the tables themselves, and the pavilion turned into a dance hall .Pay attention to the Grotto, a traditional decoration of English landscape parks of the 18th century, and the Turkish bath, which accurately reproduces one of the Constantinople mosques .One of Pushkin's symbols was a sculpture-fountain "A Girl with a Jug", a copy is installed in the park, the original is kept in the Russian Museum .A magnificent view of the park opens from Granite Terrace, in front of which a colorful flower carpet is spread .
Less than grandiose, but still one of the best examples of architecture of classicism, the Alexander Palace attracts visitors with an exhibition of objects of everyday life of the royal family: personal belongings, dresses, toys by Tsarevich Alexei .It was here after the 1905 revolution that the family of the last Russian Emperor Nicholas II resided permanently .During the fascist occupation, the palace housed the Gestapo and the German headquarters, the basement became a prison, and the square in front of the palace was a cemetery for SS soldiers .In the Alexandrovsky Park, a special interest is represented by the Chinese village, which arose as a result of the culture of the East .Continue the eastern theme of the Great Chinese Bridge of pink granite, the Dragons Bridge, the Cross Bridge and the Chinese Theater, of which, to this day, only Ruins .
Certainly worth visiting in the Tsarskoe Selo building Lyceum, where he studied young Pushkin .At that time it was one of the best educational institutions in Russia and in the world .Now in the building there is a memorial museum opened for the 175th anniversary of the birth of Alexander Sergeevich .In the Lyceum Garden there is a monument to Pushkin-Lyceum student .Another place connected with the great Russian poet in Pushkin is a museum in the house of Kitaeva on Pushkinskaya Street, .2 .Pushkin took this dacha immediately after his marriage, here they wrote "Onegin's Letter to Tatiana", prepared for publication "The Tales of Belkin" and "The Tale of Tsar Saltan" .
