Step into the world of kings and queens and one of the world’s greatest art collections
From the banks of the Neva river, the Winter Palace offers one of the most iconic historical views available on this planet. But it can’t prepare for what awaits when visitors step inside and feel their breath taken away by a world that can only be described as magical.
As the world’s 2nd largest museum, it contains nearly endless amounts of modern and classic masterpieces and antiques, as well as important artefacts ranging from ancient Rome, Greece and Egypt. Legend has it would take 11 years to explore if one minute were given to each exhibit.
Often compared to the Louvre, in reality, it is uniquely Russian and triumphantly wondrous. Visiting is truly something every human being should do once in this lifetime.
