The beloved ruler, whose reign is called the "golden age" of Russia, is memorialized in this statue of Catherine with carvings of dignitaries at her feet.

Ended up here while in on our way to the Yusupov palace on the Moika River. The monument stands in front of the Alexandrinsky Theater at the Catherine Garden. This wonderful bronze depicts Ekaterina standing tall above orderly state men, all key players in her reign, as commander Suvorov, Count Potemkin and the poet Derzhavin. The empress rises above everyone and looks at Nevsky Prospect with a smile.

Love the cat statues, there is a black cat on one side of the street and a yellow cat on the other side. It brings good luck to make a wish and throw a coin to the cats. But the coin has to stay on the ledge of the statue and not fall down. Russians are very supersticious and place these kind of statues all over the city for making wishes. I think it is adorable and also it is good fun to try to catch the wish! ❤️
