Description:
- Officially known as the Resurrection Cathedral of the Orthodox Church in Japan, this odd, though beautiful Byzantine-design Russian Orthodox church took its nickname from Archbishop Nikolai, its first administrator until his death in 1912. The original plans for the church with the green onion dome were drawn up in St. Petersburg by Josiah Conder, a British architect, and the construction was completed in 1891. Service is in Japanese.
Service time: 10am-12.30pm Sunday Admission: JPY300 for the candles - © wcities.com 2012
