Purchasing tickets for State Hermitage in St. Petersburg?

I have been planning to go on a holiday this summer. It seems to me that it is a good idea to go to St. Petersburg. It seems like a really good and attractive choice. I would especially like to go to State Hermitage. However, as I have never been there before, I would like to hear some suggestions about how to purchase the tickets while there. Thanks in advance.

Going to State Hermitage promises to be probably one of your best experiences for you. The museum has tremendous collection of art works and is one of the most important in the world. The tickets are sometimes hard to come by on your own, and sometimes there are so many people in line, you would be using too much time just waiting. There are tickets services on-line. where you can buy tickets. I especially recommend you go to http://tickitnow.com/?p=museum. There you can purchase tickets. Moreover, they can send the tickets by airmail to you, or you can pick them up once you are in St. Petersburg.
