I'm not sure why it is rated so low because it is in the top three of places you must not miss if you are in St Petersburg! The palace, the grounds and the Amber Room are all incredible. Some people travel from far away just to see the Amber Room! p.s. If you are hungry, the hot dog stand outside of the palace has great hot dogs on the best rolls, ever!

Blue paint for blue eyes!

I liked the size of the palace; it's huge! It's blue too! I was told that it was not origninally so, but Catherine wanted it to match the color of her eyes! Inside it is gold and glamour. Well worth the look. You can rent the ballroom to give a party! Elton John played there!
I suggest going early because later the lines grow long. ...
