    Vladimirsky Cathedral, Sevastopol (tomb of the Admirals) - I was baptized here, located not far from the house where I lived the first half of my life.

    Temple of the Icon of the Mother of God "Sign" in Kuntsevo - close to home and located in a very picturesque place.

    In Spain there are so many beautiful cathedrals, but these three come to my mind:

    Sacred Family Cathedral in Barcelona:



    Cathedral of Palma de Mallorca:



    Cathedral of Burgos, in Castilla-Leon:



    Venezuela, -where most cathedrals have a new world style, less stylish than European cathedrals- has very little to offer in this matter, compared to Spain, but if I had to pick, this one, with very old-European classic style comes to my mind:

    Cathedral of San Cristobal del Tachira, in the Venezuelan Andes:
