CATHERINE PALACE | BEST Palace in St. Petersburg, Russia

Today, Katie and I visited Catherine Palace just outside of St. Petersburg, Russia. It was an incredible day and one of the better palaces we've visited around the world. Extremely beautiful and opulent!
This palace was owned by Peter the Great, then Elizabeth the I, and then Catherine the Great!
The Amber Room was a highlight and very interesting to see. It has great significance in the history and the original room was stolen and never recovered.
We enjoyed touring the beautiful gold rooms and palace grounds today. Peterhof may have incredible fountains, but by comparison the palace itself at Catherine Palace is much more impressive!!
Make sure you buy your tickets in advance and likely join a group tour to keep things easy as this palace lines up for HOURS out front. It's not worth the wait if you can just walk in with a tour guide.

Stay tuned - tomorrow we head to Peterhof to compare the two palaces and grounds.
