Its history goes back to the XVIII century, when luxurious palaces, parks and decorative ensembles were created here, and the modern city has preserved the atmosphere of grandeur and chamber provincialism. Walks along Pushkin combine familiarity with the rich culture and pleasant walking routes among the old alleys and ponds, which makes the city attractive for tourists and locals.
Among the man-made attractions are the Catherine Palace with the legendary Amber Room, the Granite Terrace with its galvanoplastic statues - Apoxiomenes, Antina, Danaida with a bowl, Venus Medicia, Artemis and Hercules of Farnese.
