МИР БОЖИЈИ! ХРИСТОС СЕ РОДИ!

The Cathedral Church of Nativity of the Theotokos (Serbian: Саборна Црква Рођења Пресвете Богородице or Saborna Crkva Rođenja Presvete Bogorodice) is the largest Serbian Orthodox church in Sarajevo and one of the largest in the Balkans.

The cathedral is dedicated to the Holy Mother of God. It was erected upon request by the Orthodox parish of Sarajevo between 1863-1868. The head master was Andreja Damjanov, a man from the great Damjanovi-Renzovski family of master builders, masons, painters, iconographers, carpenters and stonecutters from the village of Papradishte near Veles, Macedonia. The church is constructed as a three section basilica incribed in a cross shaped plan, and has five domes. The domes are build on the beams, the central one is much larger than the other four side domes. The church is arched by round elements. The small gilded baroque style belfry is built in front of the entrance. The interior walls are decorated by painted ornaments. In the lower zones of the walls the painted ornaments are simulating the marble stone construction look. Arches and vaults are decorated in ornaments only. In 1898 the Orthodox Metropolian Palace was built near the cathedral.

Pozdrav,Braca

Biće da kasnim, ali svejedno ti želim sretan Božić :)
Ova fotka ti je uprkos mutnoći ipak uspjela (IMO), jer ta mutnoća doprinosi prelijepoj atmosferi što ju čini osvjetljenje.
Pozdrav
Tanja

Ваистину се роди, Зоко, све најбоље теби и твојим најмилијима!

Прелепа ноћна фотка, прикладна за честитку, занимљиве информације у ноти, изузетан рад!

Поздрав, Славица

Dear Zorica! Amazing fog, wonderful light. Beautiful take. Cheers!

Zdravo Zorice

Lijepa fotografija.
Samo mi je zao sto je bilo lose vrijeme.

Nadam se da je tebi, ipak bio lijep boravak u SA.
