Temples of Ukraine

Ukraine has always struck with the beauty of its monasteries and temples. And to this day tourists who are interested in the history of the Ukrainian state go to Ukraine to see with their own eyes a huge number of Orthodox churches and monasteries scattered throughout the country.

The most beautiful temples of Ukraine

It is possible to argue for a long time on the topic, which Orthodox churches in Ukraine are the most beautiful. Each person has his own individual concept of beauty, especially when it comes to churches. In order to draw any conclusions, you need to go around the whole country to look into each of them. But not all are available such luxury, and therefore we will stop only on those who, in the opinion of the majority, are considered the most beautiful temples in Ukraine.

In Svyatogorsk, Donetsk region, on the picturesque shore of the Seversky Donets, there is an extraordinary beauty of the Holy Assumption Monastery . Every year, tens of thousands of pilgrims come to kneel before the Svyatogorsk icon of the Mother of God. There is a functioning monastery here.

Vydubitsky Monastery is located in the territory of modern Kiev. With its centuries-old history can be found without going somewhere far off-road. The St. Michael's Church, located at the monastery, is open for pilgrims all the time.

In Pochaiv, in Ternopil region, you can see what is called here the "Second Jerusalem". This is the Holy Dormition Pochaiv Lavra . The richest interior decoration of a snow-white temple under golden domes should be seen firsthand at least once. Anyone who visited the Pochaev Monastery, brings home a particle of opary for baking Pochaevsky bread, bringing good luck to the house of the one who got it.

The Cathedral of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin in Kozelec was also described by Taras Shevchenko himself. This "luxurious gift of the queen" is worth it, after postponing business, to come to admire this historic place.
