We had a European-style winter this year. Snow was a rare guest. But on the last day, February 29, a little snow suddenly fell. Combined with a blue sky and bright sun, it turned out very beautifully.

This is Alekseevsky garden. On the path are children with sledges. In this park there is a slide children love to ride.

The building with the turret is the palace of Grand Duke Alexei Alexandrovich. Now in this building is a concert hall.

Monument to Russian poet Mikhail Lermontov. Lermontov lived in the first half of the 19th century, served in the army, died in a duel at the age of 26.

The monument to Lermontov stands in the Alexander Garden, in front of the Admiralty. The walls of the Admiralty are decorated with bas-reliefs of flying figures. Flights near the Admiralty are prohibited.
