St. Petershof sightseeing

Sorry for quick movements in the video we couldn't use our tripod there. The Peterhof Palace (Russian: Петерго́ф) (an emulation of early modern Dutch "Pieterhof", meaning "Pieter's Court") is a series of palaces and gardens located in Petergof, Saint Petersburg, Russia, commissioned by Peter the Great as a direct response to the Palace of Versailles by Louis XIV of France. Originally intending it in 1709 for country habitation, Peter the Great sought to expand the property as a result of his visit to the French royal court in 1717, inspiring the nickname of "The Russian Versailles".
