Series in Sablino, Gatchina cinema town
Early in the morning we'll go to Sablinsky Nature Reserve, wandering between waterfalls and caves, we'll recognize the locations from our favorite TV series. In the afternoon we'll arrive in Gatchina: you can guess what kind of movies they like to shoot here. However, it's not that simple.

Sablinskiy Vodopad
The Sablinsky Nature Reserve includes 14 caves, canyons and two plain waterfalls. No one doubted that this picturesque place would be favoured by filmmakers.
Here was shot the film "Alexander. Neva Battle" (2008), episodes of the criminal series "cops" and "Savage Devils" - you can list for a long time. It is better to see the beauty of this place not from the screen, but with your own eyes.

The State Museum-Reserve "Gatchina"
Gatchina is probably the favorite place of filmmakers south of St. Petersburg. Vitaly Melnikov used the Gatchina Palace to tell the story of the life of Paul I (played by Viktor Sukhorukov). Another historical figure took up residence in the palace in 2014, when Yulia Snegir tried on the role of Catherine the Great.
Eldar Ryazanov turned Gatchina into Copenhagen during the Nazi occupation (the fairy-tale film "Andersen. Life Without Love", 2006). In the film "Left-Hander" (1987) with Kuravlyov the Gatchina Palace became an English castle for a while.
The "unhappy" districts of Gatchina also attracted filmmakers. One such street was featured in "Cargo 200", and for the film "Father" (2007), based on a story by Aleksandr Platonov, the Gatchina railway station was covered with artificial snow.
And the cherry on the cake: in the film "Leaving - Leave" (1978), which was filmed in several locations Gatchina, played a real bandit P. Polezhaev - he took under contract from the colony.
Limitations in connection with the November lockdown COVID-19: Visiting the museum-reserve is possible only with a valid QR-code, as well as observing the social distance and the use of personal protective equipment.
