Gatchina

share
Perhaps the most neglected of St. Petersburg's suburban palaces in the post-war period, Gatchina is also probably the most lived-in, with four Tsars considering it their family home. Khotchino (old name of Gatchina) was first documented in 1499 as a village in possession of Novgorod the Great. In the 17th century, in a series of wars, it passed to Livonia, then to Sweden, and was returned to Russia during the Great Northern War.

Getting there:
By bus: From Moskovskaya metro station: marshrutka 18, 18a, public bus 431.
By train: From Baltisky train station take a train to Gatchina Baltiskaya.
