It’s a huge palace and most paintings and antiques had been transferred out. Just a good feel on how big the palace is and looking at some of the palace interior Most impressive area for me is the mini theatre in there.

Marvellous aristocratic palace in heart of Saint Petersburg.
Absolutely interesting the history of the Yusupov family.
Very well organised tour through the marvellous halls of the palace which host some amazing and unique interiors and ambiences.
Very well organised in terms of accessibility, audioguide and services.
I would have give the 5 stars if they didn't make my pay for the Rasputin exposition part which was actually closed.
Apart from this strongly recommended.

Worth visiting this private aristocracy home that is used as a museum. Lots of amazingly beautiful interior designs from Italian, Greek, France and Russian architects. Enjoy acapela song in private theatre room. But you have to pay for your camera and to enter some private rooms. It is enjoyable but please do not compare this private home with the interior design in the Marseilles castle in France.
