Harbin | The reduced version of Moscow Red Square, St. Alexeyev Church. 2020 is a year worth recording for the world. We decided to start recording this northern ice city first. The third stop of urban memory: Harbin "St. Alexeyev Church". Harbin, a beautiful Catholic church, is photographed like a reduced version of Moscow Red Square! Our old Harbin people call it "Renovation Street Church". This church is also used as a religious place, so it is more mysterious and ritualistic than the famous Hagia Sophia Cathedral! If you come to Gogol Street, you may as well check in at No. 47 Shijia Street, Nangang District, Harbin City, Gogol Street is at the end. Only religious days will open the interior, such as sometimes Saturday and Sunday worship. Can you enter the general to see luck. Outside can be visited and photographed at will. Free. No. 8, No. 87, No. 109 and other N buses, get off at the Genovation Street Station. Self-driving is not very convenient, parking is not good nearby. Play tips: ① It is recommended to play 15-20 minutes. ② It is more appropriate to check in with Gogol Street. There is Gogol Street Internet Red Bookstore nearby. ③ Because it is a religious place, please pay attention to respecting local believers. ④ It's better to take pictures at night with lights! This kind of light in Harbin is usually turned off at 10 o'clock in the evening, but I haven't squatted for the specific situation. Epidemic tips: Religious activities affected by the epidemic have been cancelled, so the interior is temporarily closed. (So the internal environment photos are not taken during the epidemic.). / Byzantine art gem/ This church was designed by Russian designers [different from the classical style church in Russia]. The classical style church architecture in Russia is Byzantine, and its shape and style are almost all modelled on the Cathedral of St. Sophia of Constantinople. It was not until the 16th century that the Russian-style church began to be built: the vault of the Byzantine church was changed to a tent spire, which prevented the snow from being preserved. Inspired by the bell-shaped dome of the Arab church, the roof of some churches was designed to be in the shape of a ball, and some church roofs were compatible with these two shapes, with pointed round height and scattered. /True religious site/St. Alexeyev Church was restored in 1980 and converted to a Catholic Church. It is now the seat of the Catholic Episcopal Assembly of Heilongjiang Province, the Catholic Episcopal Assembly of Harbin City and the Catholic Episcopal Council of Heilongjiang Province. To be rational, it turned out to be an Orthodox church, and then it became a Catholic church. As a true religious place, luckily you can participate in real religious activities and contact Catholic believers. /Interior/If you are lucky enough to visit, you will see a painting of the saint of Sadrokini. Above the column are four images of the Holy Spirit of the Holy Spirit for disciples to discuss their teachings. From Kurskul to the Russian Army of Lushun, the Virgin of the Virgin, bearing the name and year of the gifter.

    Saint Alexeyev Church is a famous church, located in Shijia Street, Nangang District, the traffic is very convenient and the scenery is pleasant. The exterior of the church looks very colored, the color is very bright, so that people can see the grandeur of the building in the distance. The main color of the building is in red and white tones, which is very shocking in comparison, and the overall look very coordinated.

    The church of St. Alexeyev, known as the Red Square in Harbin, is named after the main building of the church in red, and the light at night is even more spectacular. The small square in front of the church is a leisure place for residents every night.

    Come out of Gogoli Bookstore and walk for about 15 minutes. At the intersection of Renovation Street, you will see the red St. Alekseyev Church. The church has no religious activities and can not be visited. The square is also very quiet. I am the only visitor. There are only a few elderly people in the local area. It is quite different from the lively St. Sophia Church Square. It is so convenient for me to enjoy it quietly. The Church, formerly known as the Orthodox Church, was built in 1930. After five years of construction, the church was named St. Alekseyev Church because it is located in what the Russians call "Alekseyevka Village" (in today's Xiangfang District). It was converted to Catholic Church after 1980. Although the appearance of the church is not as grand as that of the Orthodox Church, it is a little more beautiful. Red brick, golden cross, symmetrical cross-shaped plane layout, as well as a strong Russian style tent apex, and commonly known as "onion top". Like a fine brushwork, it is exquisite and delicate everywhere. Autumn Forest Company, Gogoli Bookstore, St. & 183; Alekseyev Church are on Gogoli Street, Autumn Forest Company, St. & 183; Alekseyev Church is at both ends, Gogoli Bookstore is in the middle, you don't start like my Gogoli Bookstore, walk a lot more.

    Harbin Catholic Church is a cultural relic protection unit in Heilongjiang Province. Located at the intersection of Renewal Street, Nangang District, Harbin City. The building area is 1005 square meters. It was built in 1931. The original name is Aleksheyev Church. Photographs of Harbin Catholic Church from various angles. A red Orthodox Church, the best preserved Church in Harbin, is an important material for the study of the spread of Orthodox Church and architectural art. Next to the Catholic Church in Harbin is the residential area. The Gogoli Bookstore nearby is very famous. It is said that the bookstore is very warm. Take Bus No. 7 and Bus No. 8 and get off at Innovation Street. You will see a red building.

    Compared with St. Sophia's Cathedral, the church is smaller and less knowledgeable. It is also located in residential areas, not in separate business areas. A very small intersection is situated in this beautiful church in Russia. The whole body is brick red, very retro and quiet. Unfortunately, when it came, it was spoiled by the activities of the so-called health system, with a booth beside it, which completely destroyed the aesthetic feeling and "loneliness" of the church. Unfortunately... I went around the church. It was really beautiful and special.

    In Gogoli Street Innovation Street, there is a beautiful church. I think Harbin is the best place to see after Sofia Church. Unfortunately, there are many houses in the back, and the interior is not open to the outside world. If it is nearby, it is still worth seeing.
