The place where the world comes together in honesty and mirth.

Kizhi Pogost


The oldest fully wooden churches in the world are also architectural wonders. These are “multi-story, multi-cupola, single-block masterpieces.” Built 300 years ago on the Russian Kizhi island, they are called the Church of the Transfiguration and the Church of the Intercession.
Read about them and see lots more pictures at Kuriositas.
