Izmailovsky garden, Regional cultural heritage garden on Fontanka River embankment, Saint Petersburg, Russia.
Izmailovsky Garden spans 9.4 hectares with geometric ponds and pathways reflecting English landscape design principles along the Fontanka River waterfront.
The garden originated from Swedish noble estates before Peter the Great gifted the land to Catherine in the early 1700s for imperial household purposes.
The garden hosts the International Imperial Gardens of Russia Festival annually since 2008, bringing together landscape designers and garden enthusiasts.
Visitors can access the garden throughout the year without entry fees, with multiple public transportation connections near buildings 114 and 116a.
The garden incorporates Carlo Rossi's architectural vision, combining natural elements with geometric water features that characterize Saint Petersburg's garden heritage.
