The Hermitage in
St. Petersburg, Russia
Here is what the entrance to the Hermitage looks like. Don't be deceived though, this place is HUGE!
To get a better idea of what this place actually looks like and how huge it is there are a bunch of youtube videos ... here is just one of them
the Grand Entrance
the Throne Room
Below is a close up of the wood floors from the picture above. I love the wood inlay!
Another Throne Room
Below is a close up of the mosaics on the floor of the picture above. Also, pictured below, is a fountain that is located in the above picture on the right and on the left.
Believe it or not this is a clock ... and it moves.
Check it out on youtube (it is in Russian for those who speak Russian)
