St. Petersburg is absolutely the most facinating city we have ever visited. There were palaces and churches everywhere. Really NICE palaces and churches. Those Tsars really lived well!

Sorry, no picture of Yusupov Palace could be found, but if you click on the "peek inside" button you can take a look at some of the rooms of this extraordinary private palace. The Yusupovs were
well-healed friends of the Tsars.
