Golden domes of the Cathedral

Golden domes of the Cathedral

This picture of the Cathedral of Christ the Savior I made during a river cruise on the Moscow-River. It was cloudy weather, but the Cathedral looks impressive anytime as symbol of our Orthodox religion.
The enormous gleaming golden dome and gigantic structure of the Cathedral of Christ the Savior is visible from all over central Moscow and it is the largest church in Russia. The Cathedral was built with the money collected by the people all over Russia in the 19th century. The church was later demolished in 1931 on Stalin's orders, but was recovered during 1995 - 2000.

Recently, I invited my mother and my mother-in-law (both 80 years old) to visit me in Moscow. I was wondering how I could show them the city as they both would not be able to walk more than 100 m. But then I met Arthur and suddenly solutions for everything were in place - a car, wheel chairs, nice tours and - most importantly - a guy with a big heart! My mothers were so happy and I have no words to express my gratitude to Arthur for all his patience and kindness with these old ladies. Thank you, Arthur! The world is nicer with people like you!
