The most peaceful place around Saint-Petersburg is a huge park called “Pavlovskiy”

You definitely must visit this magnificent place if you come to Saint-Petersburg one day! It takes one hour to get there by taxi or train. But really worth it! Fresh air, squirrels, tall and old trees, lakes and rivers, big “Pavlovsky” palace. All in one! There are cafes as well, so you can come and enjoy the whole day. You can visit the palace as well. Beautiful way back to history!
