As I was walking down the street in the evening, my attention was drawn to the beautiful colors that perfectly complemented the Orthodox church I often pass by.

The wonderful play of light made the building look exceptionally majestic, creating an incredible atmosphere. I couldn't help but take a photo. In this light, the church looked like something out of a fairy tale.
This church is based on the Hagia Sophia in Constantinople, but of course in miniature. It is a young building, as its construction began in 2015, and it was consecrated in 2020. However, it has already become a permanent feature of the landscape and is one of the most characteristic buildings in the area.

In Warsaw, the city where I live, there are at least 40,000 Orthodox Christians today, so it is no surprise that there are more and more places of worship for this religion, which has over half a million followers in Poland.

And what is your impression when you are looking at my picture?
