📍 From Summer Garden, Russia
The Summer Palace of Peter the Great, nestled in the historic Summer Garden in St. Petersburg, Russia, is a modest yet elegant representation of early 18th-century architecture. Built between 1710 and 1714, it was designed by architect Domenico Trezzini as a humble retreat for Peter the Great. The two-story building features a Dutch-inspired facade and is noted for its simple yet functional design. Inside, tourists can explore a series of rooms that retain period furnishings, paintings, and artifacts that reflect Peter the Great’s pragmatic lifestyle and taste. The surrounding Summer Garden is equally enchanting, boasting meticulously manicured lawns, classical sculptures, and serene fountains, offering visitors a peaceful escape in the heart of the city.
