Of course it's great. But what surprised me and my loved ones was that we were in the cathedral in the morning, with the morning service still, but where are the people? Literally five people, we were passing through, but I didn't expect so few people. The cathedral is beautiful, both inside and out. And while you climb the stairs, not everyone will be able to, but you can also go around from the other side, just right for an old man.. Whoever will be there, be sure to visit.

A wonderful place! A real pearl in the historical and spiritual sense. I got a real pleasure walking nearby and enjoying the views that are not transferable. I recommend everyone to visit here.

The temple, capable of accommodating up to two thousand people, more than 50 meters high, with 21 bells, the largest of which is more than 5 tons, opened in 2011. The first service was held here on the Annunciation.
And for a quarter of a century now, people have been going to the main temple of Vitebsk to pray to God, to worship the shrines for which the majestic cathedral is famous.
Among them, the most revered are the icon of the Mother of God "Assumption", painted by icon painters of the workshops of the Epiphany Kuteinsky Monastery in Orsha, icons with fragments of the relics of St. Euphrosyne of Polotsk, as well as Seraphim of Sarov, which was painted by Arzamas monks and presented by Metropolitan George of Nizhny Novgorod, as well as the icon of Sergius of Radonezh; images of the Mother of God of Orsha, locally venerated Saints Nicholas Okolovich and Vladimir Elenevsky. There is also an icon of Spyridon of Trimiphunt, the Wonderworker from the Meteora Monastery in Greece. She was consecrated on the island of Corfu on the relics of the saint and taken to Vitebsk.
