“This year, due to the difficult epidemiological situation in the city, it was decided to postpone the start of the fountain season,” RIA Novosti quoted Biryukov as saying.
According to him, the decision on the opening date of the fountain season will be made based on the current situation.
The spring launch of the fountains of the Peterhof State Museum-Reserve was also postponed from April 25 to a later date due to restrictions in connection with the spread of coronavirus.
