Ileana has taken on the new challenge of Photos Chain.
The last link to the Photo Chain Challenge was added by Ileana. I chose the church as an element.
I took a look at this Orthodox church during my vacation last year. As you know for sure, I really like getting to know other cultures. That is why I am always happy to see everything related to another culture.
Orthodoxy is one of the three major branches of Christianity. It separated from Catholicism after the Eastern schism in 1054. Orthodoxy is characterized by the absence of a unified leader, such as the pope of Catholics. Each state or national Church is an autocephalous (independent) church and has its own patriarch who is its head.

I am an Orthodox Christian and I visit such temples. To my delight, we have one such temple. A magnificent view.
You won’t believe it, but I thought of you when I wrote this post. The Orthodox churches are really beautiful. I like them very much.
Impressive architecture in the midst of beautiful nature, and of course in such beautiful photos!
Thank you so much, dear friend. I visited this place for the first time. The city lies in a beautiful setting in the immediate vicinity of the national national park.
You’re welcome, dear friend. Your explanation makes me understand why the environment around the building is so beautiful.
love the picture! the history of religion was a class I took in college, I am always trying to see the unique churches of the many different religions!
Thank you. I always like to visit churches of different religions. Of course, if I have that option.
we have so many religions and variations of religions within a short drive.
we live just north of where all the Embassy Staff live (the Ambassadors live in downtown DC but their staff lives in Maryland/Virginia.
Beautiful building, just before the lockdown I visited an orthodox church here for a funeral service.
Thank you so much. I do not have the opportunity to see the Orthodox churches often.
Beautiful church , where this church is located ?
This church is located in the state of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Ancient church buildings always look fashionable in the modern world.
You are right. I always like to see these sights.
Churches everywhere I notice are well designed.
You are right. All the churches are really beautiful.
That is a lovely church.

That’s such a beautiful church, I love the architecture and the garden around it.
I agree. To me, all the churches are very interesting.
My uncle used to attend an Orthodox church. How beautiful is this one.
I find very interesting and beautiful churches of other religious communities.
