Description: The Zenkov cathedral was built in 1904. This is the only one of Almaty's building which survived the 1911's earthquake. The cathedral is built entirely of wood, and without nails. The architecture is typical from Orthodox Church. This cathedral could not disfigure in the Moscow's red plaza. The walls are painted with sharp colours, mainly blue, green and red. The snow-capped mountains just stands behind the church's domes and the bulbs and give the city an incredible pioneer atmosphere.
