Best at golden hour or after dusk when surrounding lamps glow; winter snows add classic Russian mood. Easily reached on foot from Gatchina center; limited curb parking on Bannyy Pereulok. No entry fee. Weekday mornings and late evenings have few people; combine with shots of nearby historic streets and Gatchina Palace for context.
