Next attraction is the Hermitage. All photos are original and taken by me.

This pavilion in the Baroque style. Located in the Catherine Park in Tsarskoye Selo (town of Pushkin)

The pavilion was intended for a narrow circle of courtiers. This is the place for entertainment.

This octagonal pavilion has two floors. Located on an artificial island. To get to the island is just across the bridge over the moat.
