Beautiful cathedral in Nice, France 🇫🇷

#celebratewithtrip #france #nice #cathedral Cathédrale Saint-Nicolas de Nice The Cathedral features typical Russian motifs with the iconic onion domes and bright paint colours. It reminded us of the Russian Church in Sofia, Bulgaria. We really enjoyed the architecture and felt it was a must see in Nice. The cathedral, consecrated in December 1912 in memory of Nicholas Alexandrovich, Tsarevich of Russia, who died in Nice, was meant to serve the large Russian community that had settled in Nice by the end of the 19th century, as well as devout visitors from the Imperial Court. We visited the cathedral on our last day in Nice on a Sunday during the mass. It was full of people from different nationalities, all sharing the same Orthodox religion. The cathedral is very beautiful on the outside and nicely done on the inside.

Orthodox cathedral in Nice, France 🇫🇷

#celebratewithtrip #nice #france #cathedral This is a property of the Russian Federation, it is recognized as a national monument of France, and it currently belongs to the jurisdiction of the Moscow Patriarchate. It is the largest Eastern Orthodox cathedral in Western Europe. The cathedral was opened in 1912, thanks to the generosity of Russia’s Tsar Nicholas II. From 1931 until 15 December 2011 (after a longstanding legal dispute over ownership was resolved), the parish that occupied the cathedral was part of the Paris-based Patriarchal Exarchate for Orthodox Parishes of Russian Tradition in Western Europe under the jurisdiction of the Church of Constantinople.

St. Nicholas Church

First time entering the Eastern Orthodox Church. The Eastern Orthodox Church, also known as Othodox, claims to be the orthodox Christianity. Because it originated in the Eastern Roman Empire, it is called Eastern Orthodox (often followed by "Eastern"). Compared with other denominations, it has a bit of fundamentalism. The decoration style inside the Eastern Orthodox Church is also significantly different from the other two denominations, the most obvious point being that there are basically no seats. This is because the Eastern Orthodox Church emphasizes that people are inferior to God, and it has gradually evolved into deliberately oppressing the congregation and suppressing human nature. The clergy compete for power and form various factions that do not give in to each other. Therefore, it appears to be the most backward and anti-human nature among the three Christian denominations. In the later period of the Soviet society, it became rigid, and I personally think that the Eastern Orthodox Church also has responsibility. The lack of emphasis on human nature in faith can easily be exploited by politicians and bureaucrats. First time entering an Eastern Orthodox Church.

Russian Orthodox

#celebratewithtrip Also called as Saint Nicholas Cathedral is one of the largest Russian Orthodox religious buildings outside of Russia. It is located in Av. Nicolas II, 06000 Nice, and is around 1.1 kilometers 15 minutes walk away from Nice-Ville train station. It is open daily from 1000-1800. It is made up of a central dome surrounded by four smaller domes, to which it added the sixth dome housing the bell tower and clad in real gold. The exterior is a mix of pink brick, light gray marble, brightly colored ceramics and glazed tiles. Inside are carved and painted icons, frescoes and woodwork, representative of Russia Orthodox art.
