Ascension Cathedral Almaty

Ascension Cathedral Almaty is one of the most beautiful and one of my favourite place in Almaty, Kazakhstan. It located in a green Panfilov Park. The historical monument is one of the main sights of the city. Bishops of Turkestan and Tashkent were the initiators of the church construction in the early 19th century. Particular feature of this wooden building is that it was erected according to a unique ancient technology, practically without any nails.
