A very well maintained temple. The parishioners are mostly Russians from the locals. A piece of native culture at a great distance from home. Don't be lazy, be sure to take a look.
It is impossible to put into words ... the whole epoch is enclosed in this magnificent building, architecture and history are completely fascinating. The Ascension Cathedral is as beautiful from the inside as from the outside. A place of humility and reinvention……
The Ascension Cathedral is one of the main attractions of the city. The tallest wooden Orthodox church in the world. The same age as the famous Savior on Blood
A unique temple. Completely wooden. Tianshan spruce was used in the construction. Recently, a complete restoration was carried out, returning the original appearance. The Cathedral of the Metropolitan District of Kazakhstan.
A very nice and soulful cathedral, one of the city's business cards, a place of power, there is no other way to say it, and the main Orthodox shrine of the city. And the story is simply amazing
This is the oldest cathedral in Almaty. A lot of hardships fell to his lot. What was not in it in Soviet times. But everything goes back to normal and the cathedral returned to the faithful. Go inside and feel all this beauty, love and peace.
A place where the soul finds peace
Usually, such things give you a headache, because not all priests are able to clear the place from the accumulation of everything
A good restoration, thanks to the people who carried it out and implemented it.

It is a very atmospheric place and a beautiful cathedral. Looking at it, I can't even believe that it's made of wood. And the square nearby attracts a lot of people, and of different nationalities and religions

A beautiful house in a cozy old park with big trees, next to the central streets, but very cozy, the birds are singing
The temple is incredibly beautiful! Which withstood a terrible earthquake. The interior design can be viewed endlessly!!! The soul calms down and rejoices coming to this place of prayer
An unusual place for any Orthodox. I didn't expect to see this

The ancient Holy Ascension Cathedral.
And we must pay tribute to Nazarbayev, who returned the Cathedral to the church.
After the renovation, a beautiful building turned out, there are always a lot of parishioners and ordinary people.
In the past, I really liked the building, it reminds me of the royal times and the choir introduces you to a state of meditation - another reality (peace and quiet).
This cathedral was built without a single nail and surrounded by a moat around the perimeter by order of the military architect Zenkov. That is why it withstood the devastating earthquake of 1911. All Zenkov buildings were not damaged
It is a very beautiful cathedral. I definitely advise you to visit

I did not find anything special in this particular temple. But in this park, with warm air and gentle sunshine, you can walk nearby and look inside. Worthy of a visit.
The prices for baptism are sky-high , the priest is waiting for money at confession , a passageway for everyone, foreigners, etc. and basically everything is fine , an ordinary church
