    Try to see it outside when the fountains are running as another lovely display. Although as with all attractions here very busy with tourists.

    One of my favorite places in the city. You must come here early morning or late night when there are minimum tourist to see the real grand palace square!

    Located in a part of town which is always windy therefore cooler than the rest of it so wear your knits and enjoy a walk in history!

    Greats views of the hermitage place/winter palace from here. If you want a picture better come in the day as the lighting is poor at night

    While it is relatively bare, the square is a dramatic space at the entrance to the Hermitage. Imagine military parades during the time of the Tsars.

    The Palace Square in front of the Hermitage is quite striking in its hugeness and with the clear round outline formed by the surrounding buildings.

    Once Russian people rised up in this square against the tyrannical tsar. Who rise up against war criminal Putin in these days?

    Восхитительна в любое время суток и в любое время года. Летом полна туристов, роллеров, музыкантов, художников. Зимой поражает своим великолепием и пустынностью. Определенно - лучшее место в Питере!

    Вечером в воскресенье здесь играют неизвестные музыканты! Очень достойно! Можно найти немного времени и просто оторваться от ежедневной суеты.

    Двоцовая всегда разная, шпильки по каменистой мостовой, послушать уличную простую музыку, встретить знакомых, выйти из Эрмитажа, храпящие лошади, японцы с фоаппаратами, дни и ночи, любовь.

    Всегда атмосферно. Но иногда толпы туристов, так что лучше насладиться Дворцовой Площадью вечером и желательно в белые ночи. Фотография была сделана в белые ночи

    Сегодня наши бабушки и дедушки прошли в едином строю по Невскому проспекту до Дворцовой площади непокоренного Ленинграда. Спасибо вам за Победу, возможность жить, растить детей! #бессмертныйполк

    Hi guys:) Must visit для всех гостей города. И вообще шикарное место для прогулки. Особенно хорошо летом: уже тепло, ночи светлые, да и мосты разводят. Одна романтика

    Lugar histórico, especial y podría decir que es uno de los más importantes de la ciudad. En sus alrededores pueden degustar de un buen café, hacer una caricatura y tomar fotos para el recuerdo.
