The Russian church architecture is unlike any other and it is truly rare to find a style so aesthetically complex anywhere in the world. Most of the churches are distinguished by their verticality, bright colors and multiple domes. A couple of perfect examples will be present in the city of Rybinsk, which is a home to not one, but two such beautiful structures -
Ascension Church and
Transfiguration Cathedral.
However, sometimes there’s more than the architecture itself, that makes these buildings stand out among their surroundings. The
Transfiguration Cathedral in Ivanovo and
Church of the Smolensk Icon of the Mother of God in Arzamas will both catch your eye due to their brightly colorful rooftops and patterns on the outside walls.
And for those who are fans of a more humble style, we promise you will not be disappointed when passing by the wooden chapels in local villages.
If you are in absolute awe after taking a look at these marvelous screenshots, make sure to add the upcoming
Heart of Russia DLC to your Steam Wishlist. Don’t worry, no prayer is required. Just have a little bit of patience and eventually, you will be able to see some of these structures in the game yourself!
