The Orthodox Church used to be a place where seamen lived. The building is on the second floor, the first floor is made of natural stone, and the second floor is made of brick and wood. It was built to commemorate the Russian soldiers who died during the Russian War on Japan. The devout Orthodox churches come here every week. The church sits north facing south, the main entrance to the north, and there is a hall below. The upper part of the hall is the bell tower, the bell tower is more than 4 meters high, each side has an arch window, the 2nd floor is the round corner of the corner slightly warped, lifted by the column, the top is a semi-circular dome. The top has a small half circle, the appearance is like a pressure waist gourd painted green.

The door bucket is raised from the main building 2 meters, adjacent to the teaching wall, the upper part of the door frame is a "cross" relief ornament, each door has three steps, the upper roof of the building is black lacquer iron tile cover

    This church is not very big, a place to commemorate the Russian War, the facilities in the church are also very good, you can see a lot of landscape, the three-story building is also very simple, the road space is not large.

    Vladivostok is full of eastern orthodox churches that represent the best of eastern christian architecture. just go inside and you will see the decorated altar with religious figures all around the building, as well as locals praying at all times.

    Orthodox is the state religion of Russia, and is inextricably linked to traditional Russian culture. As soon as you step on Russian soil, you will find that there are Orthodox churches everywhere, the unique onions on the top of the church pointing to the sky, as if conveying the dialogue between God and the world, these Orthodox churches are in the Byzantine style of cross-shaped structures and domes, In the cold, snowy winters of the northern hemisphere, to avoid snowflakes piling up on roofs for long periods, Russian architects created a form of church architecture that retained a cross-shaped structure and transformed the Byzantine dome into a fairytale-filled one Onion head. Vladivostok has many Orthodox churches, which are not very large, but the onion heads are coated with a shiny gold or blue. Glowing in the sun, this onion is just a beautiful landscape for people like me who have no religious beliefs.

    The Orthodox Church is on the edge of the Submarine Museum Square, next to the Arc de Triomphe. The church is very small. Although it can be visited, it should be closed after the opening time. If you have seen the magnificent cathedrals in Moscow and St. Petersburg, you will be disappointed to see Vladivostok, this small Orthodox church, don't have much hope, but if you go to Russia for the first time, it is still fresh.

    Orthodox church, this used to be the place where seamen lived. Buildings are generally two floors, the first floor is built with natural stone, and the second floor is built with brick or wood. Built in 1907 to commemorate the sacrifice of Russian soldiers during the Russian War, the church is now attended by devout Orthodox Christians.

    There are many Orthodox workers in the Middle East Railways, and their lives are closely linked to the church. With the construction of the Middle East railway, the Russian Orthodox Church gradually entered the northeast China region, and more than 130 Orthodox churches, large and small, were built in the Lvda, Shenyang, Harbin, Manzhouli, Hengdaohezi, Kilnmen (now Dehui) and other places along the railway. The Orthodox Church has become a very important activity place in the cultural life of Russian railway employees. The "station church" was designed and built according to the standards completed by the Middle Eastern Railway authorities. The churches along the route were administered by the Middle Eastern Railways in 1903 and were transferred to the Diocese of Vladivostok in 1907. The building is in a Greek cross shape and has a strong exterior. Set off by many exquisite small Russian buildings, the station church has become a landmark in the Dehui area. Although the floor of the church is simple, the shape is very rich, elegant and delicate, which is very suitable for the atmosphere required for the function of the church. In order to shape the doors and windows and wall lines, The neatly scaled rectangular bricks are ground into a slender fan shape and column shape, which shows the depth of the kung fu. The main tone of the color is earthy red, with white line feet dotted with stained glass, which makes the church very eye-catching and gorgeous. In the early 1950s, due to the decline of Russian overseas Chinese, The church was closed. During the "Cultural Revolution", the church was seriously damaged and was once changed to a residential house. Now the main part of the church is dependent, and the ruined wall can still reveal a bit of immortal architectural art. In pity, it adds a bit of vicissitudes.

    Built in 1907 to commemorate the sacrifice of Russian soldiers during the Japanese-Russian war, the church is now attended by devout Orthodox Christians. It was once a place where seamen lived. The church is two floors, built with natural stone on the first floor and brick or wood on the second floor. Locals must come here to marry, and foreign leaders will come here to worship.
