Arhangelskoye is the Russian version of France's Versailles. It's a beautiful palace, located just a few kilometers outside of Moscow on a wooded territory.
Beautiful wild flowers speckle the lawn in bright white and lavender shades.

There are sculptures everywhere!!!!
Some sculptures are better than others...just look at that doggie!
I want a sculpture of my dog to be placed in my palace!
But one of the most interesting parts that my mom and I stumbled upon was a forgotten soccer field overgrown by dandelions! Although the picture doesn't do it justice, there was an immense amount of flowers patching the entire field - it was an incredible sight!
I love that right outside of a major city like Moscow, there is a natural oasis such as Arhangelskoye. The architecture is beautiful, the territory is peaceful, and the air is clean and fresh. As a little getaway from the rushed city life, Arhangelskoye is a fantastic destination for a more relaxing change of pace. :)
