About tour
Guided Tours of the Yusupov’s palace on the Moika River have always had special popularity among our guests. The tour has a universal appeal as it is of great interest to those who have a deep affinity for Russian history, those who love splendid interiors and beautiful photographs, and those who enjoy detective stories. During the tour, you will go through sumptuously rich interiors of the Yusupov palace which still retain most of its original decorations. You will see state reception rooms, private quarters and the palace’s famous private theater reminding of a precious casket. Our guide will tell you about the Usupov family, which was one of the wealthiest and most noble families in the Czarist-era Russia. The most fascinating part of the Yusupov’s palace tour, however, is the part devoted to the murder of Grigory Rasputin. It’s a story about a crime which was never solved as it is still uncertain who was behind the murder. Many facts have been discovered but they appear to be conflicting. Several explanations have been suggested but no one knows which of them is the right one. You will see the wax figures of Rasputin himself and other participants in this dramatic story. During the tour, our guide will give you interesting information about the history of the Yusupov family and reveal the secret of the life and death of Grigory Rasputin.

Russian ballet is primarily a classical ballet that preserves the traditions of the 19th century. This does not mean that we do not have a modern ballet, we have one, and it is a very good modern ballet (for example, the Boris Eifman troupe). But it is classical ballet that is truly unique, because nowhere else in the world is it raised to such a high level.
