Just a few miles from Pushkin lies the superb palace and park complex of Pavlovsk - this Imperial Estate was the residence of Emperor Paul I, the son of Catherine the Great, and his family. The estate's magnificent palace sits on hill overlooking an English-style landscaped park, with a beautiful river running through it. A magic, huge landscape park was laid around the Palace of Paul I, who was looking for solitude in this quiet picturesque place. Johann Strauss performed with an orchestra in the building of the Musical Station in the park.
