Chinese Garden

Peterhof, Lower Park, Chinese Garden by Monplaisir

The Chinese Garden near Monplaisir in the Lower Park of Peterhof is a cultural heritage site of federal significance in Russia. The fountains of this garden are considered the most recently created in the Lower Park, and there is also a small cascade and marble statues here. The sculptures "Antinous" and "Cupid and Psyche" were hidden underground during the war, retrieved in November 1944, and returned to their places after restoration. A copy of "Cupid and Psyche" was previously part of the Duke of Leuchtenberg's collection and was located in Sergievka, and in 1930 it was moved to the Lower Park.
