Start the day with a walk through Demidov Park. Take a photo at the Gothic gate and see the luxurious facades of the main building, the Demidovs' Estate.
Taitsy is considered one of the pearls of the Leningrad region, and the Demidovs' manor house in Taitsy is an outstanding creation of architect I.E. Starov.
These places have attracted artists, poets and composers. The beauty and scenic beauty of these places left few people indifferent. Here was painted the famous painting "View in the suburbs of St. Petersburg," S.F. Shchedrin, which you can admire in the State Tretyakov Gallery.

The Rozhdestvenno estate was often visited by the young Vladimir Nabokov. His vivid childhood memories found a place on the pages of his autobiographical novel "The Other Shores". A large part of the museum collection is devoted to Nabokov and his hobbies.
The museum building is closed to the public during the restoration, which will last until December 1, 2024. However, you can order a tour of the manor park, whose trees have stood for over 200 years.
