Almaty's St. Nicholas Cathedral

St. Nicholas Cathedral / Никольский собор, Almaty, Kazakhstan, April 2017 

香港人去哈薩克可以免簽證逗留14天,但逗留超過5天便要在5天內到移民警察局辦理登記手續

辦理手續後,Tanya 便帶了我們去附近的一間小教堂。裏面的裝潢很美麗,有很多金漆畫和金色的裝飾,很異國風情,與以前到訪過的教堂很不一樣。

Hongkonger can stay at Kazakhstan without Visa for 14 days but, if staying for more than 5 days, registration at the migration police is needed and should be done within 5 days since arrival.

After doing the registration, Tanya took us to the nearby small Cathedral. The interior looked so beautiful. There were lots of golden paintings and decoration. It was so exotic and so different from all the chapels/churches I have visited.
人們獻上的花。/ Flowers from the people. 去教堂前,Tanya 買了一種甜甜的薄煎餅給我們吃。這種餅我媽間中都會弄的,是母親的味道呀。 / Before going to the Cathedral, Tanya bought us this sweet thin pancake for us. My mum also made this type of pancake from time to time. Tasted exactly like what my mother cooked.
