This bridge, the first to cross the Fontanka River, has undergone a series of reconstructions and is noted for its elaborate cast-iron fencing and striking horse and human sculptures.
In addition to the ironwork, the statues, the boat tour accesses, and the history of this bridge as a reason to drop by, we really had the sensation that we were in one of the epicenters of people and buzz and vibe in St. Petersburg. We did end up grabbing a boat tour here. One tip is that Pelmenya cafe is half a block from this, well-rated on Tripadvisor and we can confirm a great, cheap place to eat (and/or drink).

This three-span bridge crossing the Neva River was the first of its kind in St. Petersburg, with unique features such as its fast-rising middle span, gigantic arched girders and two granite, Romanesque-style towers designed to resemble lighthouses.

This simply designed bridge crossing the Neva River is best known for the magnificent view it creates when its elevated platforms frame the gilded spire of the SS Peter & Paul Cathedral rising in the background.
Probably the best time to see and enjoy Palace Bridge is during the wonderful White Nights Festival which takes place during and either side of shortest night of year 21st June. During this time the whole city exudes a wonderful atmosphere as people from various parts of Russia , as well as further afield , enjoy spectacular short nights and long relaxing days. The streets and squares along the Neva river throng with life and large crowds gather to celebrate the raising of the many bridges, particularly around Palace Bridge. It genuinely is carnival like in its atmosphere and many people stay up all night to maximise the experience. It is very family friendly and joy to be part of this lovely festival

The candelabras and obelisks that grace this low, gently arched bridge over the Neva River have become St. Petersburg landmarks.
St. Petersburg. Russia. Trinity bridge and Peter and Paul Cathedral. Very beautiful view from the promenade. ????
