If you are at crossroads to
choose a touring destination this summer you will find Almaty, Kazakhstan a
perfect outing. This beautiful city and the former capital of Kazakhstan is
also known as the City of Apples is the biggest city in the country. An Almaty tour package from Delhi will
be most appropriate if you have not visited the place before. Several attractions hold testimony for it
being the premier tourist destination in Kazakhstan and the Zenkov Cathedral is
one of them.
The Cathedral has a distinctive
identity that spells that the structure is exceptional for its colorful
demeanor and the orthodox architecture. Zenkov Cathedral is part of the
Panfilov Park and it is 56 meters tall. This is probably only one of the
cathedrals which is made up of wood completely. The amazing feature of the
structure is that it is built without the use of nails. History of almaty
travel packages had its cruel moments when the church was converted in
to a museum by Russian Revolution however its original status was restored in
1990. The architecture used in the build is known as the Eclecticism, which is
incorporating several types of architectural elements in one piece of work. it
is truly an exceptional architecture that is not repeated anywhere else.
You are advised to follow the
strict religious customers when you visit the church. Its interior is as
elaborate as the exterior and you will find that view of the church from all
directions is different and is worth exploring why so. You could also buy
souvenirs and kids stuff from the stalls that are laid out on the side that is
open. The church was build between 1904 and 1907 and people belive that only a
miracle or act of God saved the church from devastation when an earthquake
struck the area in 1911, as the church came out unscathed. The church stands
right in the middle of the colorful Panfilov Park which is also a great
reminder of the Kazakh’s past and place worth seeing. Almaty
package from delhi will hold more such wonderful sights and it is for
you to decide what you will opt for.
