Hi! This thread is about Khabarovsk, Russian city bordering with China. It's not old (approximately 160 years) & not too large (500 thousands). I cannot (and don't want to) describe this city as a travel guide does. Only my own impressions & photos.

A beautiful and charming city and by the sheer physical look, it's a rich one too.
BTW, I'd been seeing those old but nice and gilded Orthodox churches all over Russia,
my question is - is there a particular name of its architectural design?

Great, very nice photos from Khabarovsk :cheers:

to be honest, I don't really know but in my opinion it's just like you said: russian orthodox I think if you name it like that, most of the people will understand what you mean

Really nice pictures!

You are a very good photographer! These are excellent pictures. The city looks very nice too and the nature is spectacular. :cheers:

Don't know about architectural design. All churches so far shown in this thread are newly made. They were built between 2000-2010.

Here is one more church - it was built about 2002 in place of destroyed in 1930.

Cold, but pretty amazing

 

[shik2005]

Cold, yes, around -20-25C° daytime, some days -30°C

Man, that looks cold, but also exotic at the same time! Nice shots!

Well, a couple about New Year's Eve & let's move to Vladivostok at spring...

One of the oldest churches (red building) in Khabarovsk. It was built in 1900.
