Huang Cun Mainly: Ekaterina Fort (Ye Gong), the garden in front of the palace and the big pool, the aristocratic school on the side of the palace, and the rear of the palace can be reached Alexander Palace. It is recommended to visit the garden before visiting Yegong. The reason is that during the peak season (June-October), Ye Palace's visits started from 12 o'clock for individual visitors, all of which were formerly group visitors. Moreover, for individual tourists, ticket sales have a fixed time limit for entering Yegong, so if you arrive before 10:00, you can buy Yegong tickets first. Usually, the time for admission to the palace is 12 o'clock. You can use the time to visit the garden before entering Yegong Palace. This arrangement can make a reasonable and quick tour of the garden and palace.

After reading the Winter Palace and the Summer Palace, I thought I had finished watching the Royal Palace in St. Petersburg, not the third palace! In order to see the World Cup for the second time in St. Petersburg, just before the start of the game, I took the time to go to the "Ye Gong" to see another palace in the Pushkin Garden - Yekaterina Palace.
This was built by Peter the Great in 1708 for his wife, Catherine I, and later by King Catherine II, the king's favorite suburban palace; the sky blue exterior with white pillars It looks dazzling and festive, rich and elegant, and stands in stark contrast to the palace dominated by the "male emperor". The dome of the small church at the eastern end of the palace is a five-gold round onion style, which shines under the blue sky.
Unfortunately, today is the group ticket day, there is no ticket to buy, there is no chance to visit the progress hall; but there are more Chenguang enjoying in this quiet garden.

Ekaterina Garden is a beautiful and magnificent French garden. The flower beds in the garden are colorful, beautifully arranged, tree-lined, the lake is rippling, and the forest and lakeside are filled with the Baroque-style "Ermitas" pavilion. Taiwan, artificial stone caves, Turkish baths, Chess remembrance and Moles stone pillars to commemorate the glorious deeds of the sea, Kagur monument and the famous fountain "The daughter of milk", the environment is elegant and beautiful.
During the reign of Ekaterina II (17621796), Huangcun became the epitome of the splendid culture of the increasingly powerful Russian Empire. Shortly after she became the third owner of the Imperial Village, she was converted into a fashionable English-style garden. Because the European cultural trend has evolved into a natural-oriented classicism, this concept has also been introduced into garden art. As a result, the winding path replaced the straight tree-lined road, the manicured lawn became a thick and lush grassland, and the square-shaped pond was transformed into a tortuous pool, and the free-growing group of woods seemed to be naturally formed.
