One look at Petergof and you will understand why they had a revolution against the Tsars. Its completely over the top. Makes the royal palaces in London and Amsterdam look insignificant in comparison. Only the French royalty went over the top as much as the Russians and they had a bloody revolution as well.

That's correct, Colebatch is right.
I visited Pushkin in Tsarskoye Selo and I found it outstanding, wonderful!
Did not visit the other palaces outside St.Petersburg and I regret it much.
