In the southern part of Moscow, about a 20-minute drive from downtown, are the lands of the Tsaritsino Estate (its official full name is the State Museum-Reserve Tsaritsyno). The estate operates as a museum and includes a great number of pavilions and palaces constructed especially for the empress, Ekaterina II. This large complex of palaces was designed a romantic gothic style, by Russia’s great architect, Bazhenov, in accordance with the project he was working on. Unfortunately, the empress didn’t like his work and ordered the rebuilding of the residence once more. But, after the death of Catherine the Great, this architectural idea was not completed.

During the 19th century, lovely park was created encompassing a group of ponds nearby.

Today, Tsaritsino in a restored museum-reserve and also a decorative monument to history and culture. It covers a tremendous area, considering that it is still in the city of Moscow, over 700 hectares. This is well worth seeing if you happen to be in the Moscow area.
