New Holland Park
Walk along the Moika embankment from the center. The island is visible from afar - high brick walls, plywood windows, thickets near the water. The entrance to the "New Holland" is only on one side. Be prepared for the fact that the guards will ask you to show the contents of the bags, and drinks and food will be left waiting for you in special cells. The feet that step on the territory of the art space usually direct their owners first to the photo booth, then to trendy cafes, and finally ask to lie on the green grass if it's summer, or to put on skates and go to the skating rink in winter.
