The Hermitage



The Hermitage is a five building museum with over 3 million artifacts on display and 20 times that in storage. It has paintings and sculptures by Rembrandt, Picasso, Da Vinci, Michelangelo, etc. The main building is Cathrine the Greats Winter Palace. This palace has 1057 rooms and 117 staircases. What do you do what that much space? The building itself is a work of art with amazing paintings and mouldings on the walls and ceilings.

If I lived in a place that size, I'd probably never go outside again.
