Just south of St Petersburg, laid-back Pushkin is a great place to escape the city crowds. It’s home to Catherine Palace, one of Russia’s most opulent palaces, as well as the impressive Alexander Palace, both of which are open to visitors. The town is also dotted with lovely parks, including the manicured English Garden and the vast, forested Tsarskoye Selo Park. Stop by one of the many small restaurants and cafes for a coffee or a bite to eat, and enjoy the relaxed atmosphere.
