Foros Church
Southern Crimea is associated with elegant temple, situated on the 400-meter-high cliff. This is Foros Church, beautiful nook where Heaven and Earth meet.
The magnificent temple in Byzantine style was raised in 1892. The elegant light church was raised in Russian wooden temples’ image. Foros church’s main facade was adorned by fancy porch with jutting out into the air belfry. Temple’s splendid exterior was supplemented by its rich interior decoration. Floors were tiled with mosaic, manufactured in Italy on special order, and walls were faced with multi-colored marble and painted with frescos.
High cliff, forest, beneath the sea with boats – there are everything for admiring gaze of tourists and realizing of beauty. If you look below, the temple seems to hover above the valley, the impression is enhanced when the mist rises from the sea.
