Orthodox Churches are examples of richness, obedience and outstanding architecture. Did you know that none other than Orthodox churches were the first Christian gathering sites? Orthodox churches are easily recognizable in the urban landscape with their union domes and luxurious architecture, however often enough you will see light timber buildings covered with fine woodcarvings. What hides behind the cold walls and always welcoming open doors?
