⏱ all day · Suburban train / Meteor in summer

Quiet old Kolomna: the island of ship timber, the naval cathedral and the crossroads of canals from which you can see seven bridges.

Getting there

Suburban train from Stary Peterhof station to Baltiysky railway station — about 40 minutes, then metro or taxi. In summer you can return by Meteor hydrofoil across the gulf from the centre to the Lower Park.

What to take

Comfortable shoes, an umbrella.

Stops

  1. New Holland — A man-made island of ship timber, where logs were dried the Dutch way.
  2. St. Nicholas Naval Cathedral — Turquoise-and-white sailors' baroque in quiet Kolomna.
