Top Nature in Russia

Don't miss the mini-golf! It was super fun, and a great way to spend an hour without breaking the bank. Just make sure to check the opening hours beforehand, as they vary.

If you're planning to ride the carousel, go for it right when you arrive; it gets crowded quickly and waiting can kill your vibe!

My advice is to explore the less-trafficked paths; they have some cool art installations and quieter spots to relax, away from the crowds.

Don't miss the rotating exhibitions they sometimes feature really cool contemporary artists. I stumbled upon one by chance and it was amazing!

Wear comfy shoes, especially if you want to explore the entire park. I regretted my choice of footwear halfway through!

I think it's worth packing a portable charger. I took tons of pics, and my battery was drained by the end of my visit!

I suggest checking the weather beforehand. A sudden rain shower caught me off guard, so an umbrella saved my day!

Consider getting the combined ticket for the nearby Peter and Paul Fortress if you plan to explore more; it saved me a few rubles while I was there.

There’s a cute little cafe in the park! Grab a coffee there instead of going to the more touristy spots nearby. It’s cozy and you'll save some cash!

Check out the fountains in the late afternoon when the light is perfect for photos. They look stunning and it’s a great way to unwind after a busy day exploring
