For the first time, one publication tells in such detail about the emergence and formation of one of the most remarkable suburbs of St. Petersburg - Tsarskoye Selo. Its history can be traced over more than three hundred years of existence. A lot of little-known interesting information provided by the author allows us to understand what, how and when influenced the layout of streets and squares, the creation of unique park landscapes and famous architectural ensembles, the charm of which invariably attracts thousands of citizens and tourists. The obvious advantage of the book is that the main attention is paid not only to palace residences, but also to more prosaic objects of urban infrastructure: streets and buildings on them - the environment where the daily life of local residents takes place. The extremely interesting surroundings of Tsarskoe Selo did not remain forgotten. The publication is richly illustrated and will undoubtedly be of interest to historians, local historians and simply lovers of the history of the city on the Neva. 3rd edition, expanded.
