В 81- том году нас с братом крестили в этом соборе, не смотря что, били времена коммунизма, народу было не протолкнуться, младенцы орали, народ голдел, брату шел 4 год, а мне 6 год его при этом умыли в чаше, а я помню себя в шоковом состоянии, меня даже водой не помазали а, заставили переступить через ограждение, там висела какое-то бордовое полотно и что то стояло, я точно не помню низкая была, а голову не подымала, батюшка отдал распоряжение поцеловать это полотно, а сам занялся уже следующим ребенком, естественно я его не целовала, потом нам вручили крестики при этом перепутав их по цвету мне достался голубой а, брату розовый. В общем все это крещение было таким фарсом и сбором денег.

It's a very beautiful place. It is beautiful, cozy, and comfortable. It's true that there are a lot of people as tourists, but it's not scary.

An architectural monument and a spiritual center of Kazakhstan. A completely wooden building that survived a terrible disaster more than a century ago - the strongest earthquake of 1911. The friendly priests and the spiritual atmosphere make this temple unique.

A very well maintained temple. The parishioners are mostly Russians from the locals. A piece of native culture at a great distance from home. Don't be lazy, be sure to take a look.

A place where the soul finds peace
Usually, such things give you a headache, because not all priests are able to clear the place from the accumulation of everything

It was built according to Zenkov technology, if I'm not mistaken

The ancient Holy Ascension Cathedral.
And we must pay tribute to Nazarbayev, who returned the Cathedral to the church.
After the renovation, a beautiful building turned out, there are always a lot of parishioners and ordinary people.

This cathedral was built without a single nail and surrounded by a moat around the perimeter by order of the military architect Zenkov. That is why it withstood the devastating earthquake of 1911. All Zenkov buildings were not damaged
