Name: Alexander Palace
City: Tsarskoe Selo, Russia


What's it like?
   If the walls of Alexander Place could talk, they would tell the poignant story of Russia's last czars. Commissioned by Catherine the Great in 1792 as a gift for her grandson Alexander I, the palace witnessed the private lives of generations of Romanovs - including Czar Nicholas II and his family, who lived out their final days under house arrest in the palace until they were exiled and killed during the Russian Revolution.
