Going to see this immense cathedral was the highlight of my trip to Moscow, far better than any other tourist attractions in the city. The cathedral is not only beautiful on the outside but also incredible once you get in, I highly recommend going in to see the wall paintings and the enormity and beautiful paintings of the dome. Moreover, I recommend buying the tickets to the terrace though I must say there are plenty of stairs, so be prepared for that, but the views from up there are incredible.

Nice cathedral, with a beautiful adjacent Patriarshy bridge. My daughter kept asking me why they built it, then blew it up and built it again ) Wish they kept the old one, new is nice but without age there seems to be less weight if you will. Still very impressive in size and art work in and out.

Beautiful inside and outside, also has a beautiful view from the top. It is free to enter and look aroud, but it is forbidden to take pictures! At the top there are 4 terraces where you can see the whole city ( for this you would have to buy tickets but they are cheap). To enter an Orthodox church there is a dress code so be respectful ( no shorts, no opet shoulder shirts, women tend to cover ther heads...)

What a marvelous architecture. The church is located opposite to the Kremlin Moscow. You will need to walk 1.5 Km approx to reach there. The traffic can be really fast but you have sufficient walkways to cross over to the other side of the Kremlin. You can explore its park which is big and a good place to spend a peaceful time. You can enter the church free of cost and it looks beautiful inside. If you want to reach the rooftop of the cathedral you will need to pay 400 rubles for it. You can make payments by cash or cards to capture some stunning views of the Moscow city. Be prepared to climb the terrace using stairs. They do have provision for lifts however, it seems they don't go direct. You need to be patient. Around the cathedral, you can also book tickets for cruise boats.

One of the most beautiful Cathedrals in the world

Absolutely stunning!!! The entrance on Sunday morning was free :) They do ask for donations, then who doesn’t? Also, make sure you are dressed appropriately (no shorts or sleeve less shirts). There is a small park on the side, and if you walk to the back of the church there is a machine where you can get a coin or little card of the Cathedral for 25 rubles.

Beautiful Orthodox Christian Cathedral rebuilt in the 90s after the previous church had been destroyed in 1931 at the behest of Stalin who wanted to erect a monument representing communist power (Projects never completed due to lack of funds and the Second World War). It was also place of swimming pool. It is impressive and rich. The golden domes are already seen from afar along the river The entrance is free, it is not possible to take photographs, it is forbidden to enter shorts and tops With 300 rubles it is possible to access the 4 panoramic terraces and appreciate the surrounding landscape. Near the Cathedral there is a beautiful park with flowers, benches and a fountain, ideal for restoring. Easily accessible as it is right outside the Kropotkinskaya metro station or in 25/30 minutes on foot from the Alessandro Gardens. Not to be missed to visit also the Patriarshiy Most pedestrian bridge from where there is a great view of the Kremlin and Cathedral

I love the design of the church

The beautiful Cathedral of Christ the Saviour is in central Moscow close to the Moskva river it has an excellent viewing platform accessible by elevator which gives you excellent views of the Moscow skyline from the Cathedral roof terrace. The interior of the Cathedral is outstanding with awe-inspiring architecture. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐👍

This church has an amazing view point in the heart of Moscow. You will be able to get up by elevator and go down by stairs. This place is not recommended if you are in a wheelchair. Even though they bring you up with an elevator there are more steps to climb.

(Translated by Google) The Cathedral of Christ the Savior is a unique place. Now repair work is underway, so you can enter through the Lower Temple. I entered during the service and was mesmerized by the singing and the aura of this place. As if something had turned over inside. It seemed to me that there was a restoration of energy and strength. The majesty of this structure is sometimes frightening, but when you get inside during the service, then from somewhere there is strength and energy. Thanks to everyone who takes part in the work of this Temple, the temple of soul and harmony. (Original) Храм Христа Спасителя - это уникальное место. Сейчас вокруг идут ремонтные работы, поэтому заходить можно через Нижний Храм. Я вошла во время службы и была заворожена пением и аурой этого места. Как будто внутри что-то перевернулось. Мне показалось, что происходит восстановление энергии и сил. Величественность этого сооружения иногда пугает, но когда попадаешь внутрь во время службы то откуда то появляется силы и энергия. Спасибо всем, кто принимает участие для работы этого Храма, храма души и гармонии.

(Translated by Google) Very beautiful and interesting (Original) Очень красиво и интересно

Величественно. Вроде только построили, а уже ремонт во всю.

Мне понравилось. Только холодно было.

Позавательная экскурсия в историческом ракурсе в главном Храме России с участием церковного эскурсовода, кстати экскурсии по храму водили и во времена царя, а в наши дни экскурсии могут проводить и звонарь и батюшка и другие служители церкви. Впечатлили бесценные святые вещи и иконы от старинных до современных, а также сохранённые элементы ранее разрушенного Храма Христа Спасителя, вместе с тем у намоленных икон поставила свечи, помолилась в сердце России. Внутри храма съёмка запрещена, а вот сверху и снаружи разрешают. Впервые увидела детское молитвенное место - подходящее для роста детей и со всякими предусмотренными вещами с заботой о них. На высоту птичьего полёта для экскурсии поднимались на лифте. Храм построен полностью на пожертвования меценатов, которые перечислены в списках, среди которых фигурируют и иностранные агенты...)

(Translated by Google) It’s a very beautiful place (Original) 너무나 아름다운 곳입니다

Побывала на службе в нижнем храме. Словами не передать, что в душе происходит.

Very nice place to visit. You can take good photos. Outside and inside the building is amazing. I highly recommend!

It's a wonderful place, although this cathedral was rebuild and the frescoes are very new. The interior is amazing in the good tradition of a orthodox church, full of lovely icons and paintings. It was new to me that the sacred space was inside a chapel and not behind an altarpiece decorated with icons. We can feel the respect and devotion of people, despite the amount of tourists. We also visit the crypt. It is a fabulous and quiet place. In dim light we can breathe the Orthodox Christian spirituality. It is a beautiful place. Fortunately it is not a known place for tourists.

Awesome church and amazing architecture. Situation in the main city and next to river.

Because of inside Cathedral beautiful and bridge can see Moscow River too when Radisson cruise pass away around city. Good view for see Kremlin and Gorky park.

The Cathedral of Christ the Saviour is one ne of the most imposing and controversial buildings in Russia, the resurrected Cathedral of Christ the Saviour has had a short but turbulent history. It was originally commissioned after the defeat of Napoleon, but work did not begin on its construction until 1839. The view from top Cathedral gives one of the best panoramic view in Moscow.

Loved this wonderful monument !! So authentic and a massive architecture.

(Translated by Google) Go up to the top and go down to the bottom you won't regret it (Original) Поднимитесь на верх и спуститесь в низ до конца не пожалеете
