    Mysteries of ancient estates

    Your day will start in Sergievka Park, where you will meet the sleeping giant. After that, head to the Volkovitsa manor to uncover their secrets.
    Closer to lunch, you can stop by Pushkin's great-grandfather, Hannibal, and spend the evening among the not-so-famous sights of Tsarskoye Selo.

    Here you will find a mysterious stone head peeking out of the ground. The sculptor of this monument is not exactly known, the only clue is that the work was made to the design of F. Brower. According to the author's idea, the head was supposed to depict a Russian warrior in an Orthodox helmet.
    According to one of the legends we know that once there was a spring above the head. After it dried up, the "warrior" began to grow into the ground. And according to legend, if he completely sinks under the ground - the end of the world will come.

    Our next stop is Tsarskoye Selo. But today we will skip the famous sights and concentrate on the most unusual. A moss-covered pyramid is quite an interesting location for a photo, the main thing is to choose the right angle.

    The Chapelle pavilion - Chapel, translated from the French - was originally conceived by the architect as knowledge with elements of the Gothic style, some of which appears as ruins. It is perhaps the most romantic building in the entire park, the outline of which resembles a European fairy tale castle.
    After seeing the pavilion, you can continue your walk in the park, or go straight to the restaurant of traditional Russian cuisine for dinner.
