The last day of the winter

We had a European-style winter this year. Snow was a rare guest. But on the last day, February 29, a little snow suddenly fell. Combined with a blue sky and bright sun, it turned out very beautifully.

This is Alekseevsky garden. On the path are children with sledges. In this park there is a slide children love to ride.

The building with the turret is the palace of Grand Duke Alexei Alexandrovich. Now in this building is a concert hall.
