Kazan Cathedral
Pause at the cathedral on Nevsky Prospekt for its architecture and continuing religious role. A short exterior visit can expand into a quiet interior visit when appropriate.
Dedicated to Our Lady of Kazan, the cathedral is one of the major religious landmarks on the city's main avenue. It adds an active place of worship to a center often experienced through museums and former palaces. Look at the building's relationship with Nevsky Prospekt as well as the cathedral itself.
