St. Petersburg, Petrograd, Northern Venice - St. Petersburg has many names and secrets. Important decisions were made here, grandiose festivities were held, all sorts of fictions and secrets were spread on the sidelines of the palaces, and many court intrigues were intertwined here.

All this history is still preserved in the walls of the imperial and grand ducal palaces, which never cease to delight the eyes of tourists and locals.

With this book we invite you on a journey through the most beautiful palaces of the Northern Capital - from the Winter Palace and Peterhof to the Mariinsky, Nikolayevsky, Gatchina, Vladimir, Stroganov, Marble, Tavrichesky and many others.

Mysterious, enigmatic, curious and sometimes even dark stories are waiting for you.

- Where did the corner balconies of the Winter Palace disappear to?
- Were there underground passages on Yelagin Island or is it a fiction of contemporaries?
- The mystical predictions of the icon hanging in the Gatchina Palace - did it really know the future?
- What mystical rituals were conducted in the Yelagin Palace?
- How many secrets does the magnificent Peterhof keep?

Explore St. Petersburg in a new way and try to solve all the mysteries of its palaces!
