Churches

Churches are generally a place of worship but they are also admired for their glorious architecture and amazing religious art. Their decor -whether it is paintings, templon, mosaics, bells etc - reflect the Orthodox doctrine. From austere, aisle-less chapels to magnificent cross-in-square churches, you will get the chance to see their architectural forms that were gradually established ever since the first centuries of Christianity.
