When will the fountains open in Peterhof? One of the brightest beginnings of this summer season will soon take place - the opening of fountains in Peterhof. Famous fountains all over the world will begin their work on May 21, this spectacle, as well as the closing one, come to see from different parts of the world, a truly fascinating spectacle. Personally, I was at the closing ceremony last season and in no way regretted that in the middle of the working week I left for St. Petersburg to see the closing holiday with my own eyes, so I advise you to see the opening of the summer season with your own eyes.
But it is worth mentioning that a unique holiday phenomenon for many tourists will be officially open only on May 16, on this day there will be a festive opening with all the attributes of a celebration, and now the fountains will start working in testing and troubleshooting mode. At the moment, the opening time of the valve for launching powerful streams of water through the fountains of Peterhof is scheduled for 13:00 on May 21, but the time may still change, so we do not take this moment for the final date, but as the administration said, everything should pass at this time and date ...
By the way, this summer season in Peterhof will be held under the sign of a holiday, this year the Grand Peterhof Palace will be exactly 300 years old. Further, after the restoration, the doors will be opened for us in the pavilions located on the islands of the Kolonist Park and two new halls in the Chinese Palace will open. Already now, all travel agencies are beginning to promote their products at low prices for this amazing show, and you can book an air ticket and a hotel in St. season slightly up.
Recently, an increased demand for excursions around St. Petersburg can be noted, people are attracted not only by the opening of the season of fountains in Peterhof, but also by the city itself. All excursion programs begin to operate from the beginning of May and, by the way, the choice of such programs is more than huge. All sightseeing tours have a duration of 2 to 7 days, so I recommend planning your time and enjoying the impressions of what you see.
