Carps Pond in Summer Garden
Carps Pond in Summer Garden, Artificial pond in Summer Garden, Saint Petersburg, Russia.
The rectangular pond with stone borders occupies the southern section of Summer Garden, reflecting surrounding trees and architectural elements in its waters.
Built between 1714 and 1716 during Peter the Great's reign, the pond underwent substantial restoration work from 1961 to 1962 to maintain its structure.
The pond forms part of the Summer Garden landscape design, representing early 18th-century Russian garden architecture with European influences.
Located at coordinates 59.9423°N and 30.3365°E, visitors can access the pond through multiple entrances of the Summer Garden in central Saint Petersburg.
A porphyry vase, gifted by Swedish King Charles XIV, stands near the pond since 1839, adding to its architectural composition.
