The history of this theatre dates back to the 18th century, witnessing numerous significant moments in Russian art. 👯‍♂️ The neoclassical style of the theatre is stunning, and its grand and magnificent exterior is unforgettable.

Highly recommend the second and third tier seats, where the number of people is small, and you can enjoy a panoramic view of the theatre from above! The value for money is excellent, with prices ranging from 650 to 850 RMB. 🎟️ Be sure to arrive at least 45 minutes before the performance! The theatre is vast, so you don't want to find the wrong seat and miss the opening. The blogger has had several such embarrassing experiences 🥹 Additionally, you can ask the staff for a brochure of the current performance, which is great for taking photos, especially for keepsakes!

Mariinsky Theatre in St. Petersburg, Russia.
It is an affiliated school of the Vaganova Ballet Academy, the best ballet school in Russia, and its ballet company has some of the best graduates.
The corps de ballet is very well-matched, all the dancers are slim and have small faces, and the beautiful dancing and stage performances are impressive.
The building is also beautiful, like it came out of a painting.
I was surprised that, unlike in Japan, photography and videography are allowed during the show.

I hope the world will be peaceful and free from war. I rented a car right after I got off the plane. I spent a few days in Jinhuan Town. How many days did you stay in Moscow? How many days did you stay in St. Petersburg? I went there when the ruble was at its lowest. All prices are halved I was deeply impressed by Every meal is delicious and cheap I spent 300 RMB on a super luxurious Western meal and it was delicious There are also many activities to do. Eat, walk, visit museums, abandoned military aircraft, and watch a ballet at Mariinsky. Now I still sigh ❗️The world is so big and it’s so good to be young

The Mariinsky Theatre, a true gem of cultural excellence, has earned its place among the world's finest. So, when I found myself in St. Petersburg for the third time, there was no question that it was high time to elevate my cultural experiences to new heights. The sheer grandeur and artistry that unfolded before me were nothing short of breathtaking. It left me yearning for a time when all the books and poems we encountered in school could be brought to life in the mesmerizing format of ballet, just like the enchanting performance of "The Fountain of Bakhchisarai" at the Mariinsky. If only our teacher had danced before us like a harem before a sultan, perhaps my memory would have retained much more of those literary masterpieces 😉

I always come to the Mariinsky to see the opera, but this time I went to the Mariinsky Theater again to see Giselle. As it is a famous ballet, people’s interest was also great. As soon as I entered, I received my coat and headed to the first floor seats that I had reserved. As expected, the beautiful Mariinsky welcomed us. In such a luxurious place, the dancers’ skills were also splendid. I think it was a time when we were completely absorbed in the dance that received continuous applause!

Since my major is classical music, I often go to the Mariinsky Theater. As I have explained before, this place boasts of magnificent architecture and magnificent design. It may be a bit old, but the people here value the meaning of each and every little thing in its long history. I think it is a spot that even non-majors should visit at least once. #HotPlace

I have previously introduced the luxurious and splendid Mariinsky Theater. There are two Mariinsky Theaters in St. Petersburg. The theater I introduced earlier is Theater 1, and a few days ago, I went to the new Theater 2 to watch the opera Simon Boccanegra. It definitely felt sophisticated and clean, perhaps because it was built in a modern era. It is much more comfortable and the sound is better, I would say. The theater lobby is also modern and dreamily designed, as shown in the photo.

I went to the Mariinsky Theater last night. I think I've only ever seen operas, but I saw a ballet performance yesterday. The interior was so gorgeous and beautiful that it's hard to describe, and the Mariinsky Ballet is so famous that the level was incredible. I had a great time.

When you come to St. Petersburg, there is a theater that even those who don't like classical music must visit. It is the Mariinsky Theater. The exterior is so mint-colored that it makes you wonder, "Is that a theater?" I was half-doubted when I entered, but after entering the theater and looking up at the ceiling, my jaw dropped. The magnificent and splendid interior of the building made me feel as if I had been reborn as a nobleman in the Middle Ages and had become a count who had come to enjoy cultural life.

I came to a really fancy Russian theater and was so surprised that I couldn't help but be amazed. It was such a happy experience! I hope everyone comes here at least once.

Watching a "Swan Lake" at the Mariinsky Grand Theatre~ You saw a nutcracker when you were young, is probably too young, or the drama is too boring, almost boring to Sleeping all the way... The only advantage of being old, is to calm down, Im still watching a show~

Sitting in the 237-year-old Mariinsky Theatre, where Stravinsky and Tchaikovsky met. At this time, Shakespeare's ballet "Romeo and Juliet" appeared on the stage. The gentlemen and ladies in evening gowns and suits sneaked in, and the streets screamed through the whistling sounds of American Harley heavy-duty locomotives and western rock music.
