A stunning building but had to queue a bit to get in. A typical Russian orthoox church on the inside. It had some amazing icons. It is in regular use as a church and no entrance fee. You could of course contribute

Art and religion combined... very good... It had a lot of visitors, and I would prefer to have some time to apreciate properly, but a must see, for sure...
Russian Orthodox Cathedral, and many services on Saturday. Rather spoiled for me by the huge number of tourist groups who swamp Tallinn when their cruise ships hit town. They all seem to want to photograph each other in front of the very thing I want to snap. Fortunately, they don't seem to be interested in beer, so at least they're...

Amazing inside. Set in a little square. I purchased some beautiful icons inside the church. No photos allowed. Glad I saw it.
Located in a wonderful position on the top of Toompea hill. Visible from most parts of the city due to it's elevated location. Stunning from the outside from every direction, a photographer's dream in the sunshine. The area around the building can be very crowded with tourists, but fortunately the area in front of the building has lots of space....

Don't miss the Nevski Cathedral once in Tallinn. It's very beautiful inside too (no photography). Some people in Tallinn think it should be demolished, I think that would be very wrong. It's part of Estonia's history. Never deny history!
The onion domes and gilt crosses are photogenic from every angle. The interior is decorated within an inch of its life, but photos are not permitted.
Beautiful church worth the hike pristine condition, pity some people cant read silence doesn't mean having a loud conversation. Iy must cost a lot to keep it like this it is also one of the landmarks of the city
An Orthodox gem with its onion domes and intricate icing type layers on the outside. The wonderful decoration and iconastasis inside is also a visual treat. Helps form a fantastic skyline when viewed from the Lounge 24 bar on the roof of the Radisson Blu hotel. Check it out.
Building that seems to be quite important in orthodox world, hosting late patriarch Alexy in his younger years. Influental and quite beautiful.
