During our tour we will visit Pavlovsk Palace - which was a private palace of Tzar Paul I (Pavel, in Russian), the only legitimate son of Catherine the Great. This neoclassical residence will enchant you with its lovely lived-in feel, clear bright interiors and absolutely amazing private garden of Empress Maria Fyodorovna, wife of Paul I.
