Catherine -, Alexander - and Pavlovsk Park

Image
Probably the most beautiful Parks I ever seen. But the queue to the inside was so full and crowded that I have to wait for hours with the other tourists, to get to the inside to see the Amber Room . So I decided to just enjoy the walk trough the gigantic park area. The above were pictures from the Catherine Park. Now are coming some of the Alexander Park which is directly next to it but not so perfectly groomed. Just a few Kilometers apart is the very relaxing Park of Pavlovsk. The Pavlovsk - and also the Alexander Park are more natural with some possibilities for Sport activation.

She also had some time and so she showed me around in the City. Guys I just can say this City is incredible you have to visit it. Red Square Russian Flag Inside of Kreml (Residence of Putin) The Famous GUM department store at the Red Square. One of the so called Seven Sisters, because this kind of Building is staying seven times in Moscow. If you are leaving the inner City circle you are starting to reach areas which are not so good in shape. Anya my lovely private city guide, I wish here all the best. It is hard if you receive so much kindness to give it back. I hope I will get a chance for giving back in my live. I think the inner city is the cleanest City I ever have seen. All the day over I saw thousands of cleaning cars. So it was impossible to see the tiniest bit of wa...
