I visited this St.Nicolas Russian Orthodox Cathedral in 4 October 2015. It is beautiful architecture with exquisite finishing work inside erected in 1902. God bless you!

Amazing church built by a Saint! While inside I can’t tell if I’m in NYC or Cathedral of the Theotokos, Joy of All Who Sorrow in SF.

I hadn't been here in years and recently visited for Vigil on Saturday night . Unlike when I previously visited, the Gospel was read in English, the sermon was in English and some of the Litanies were sung in English. I'm not sure if that's every week or not, but it was quite the change. The priest was friendly and greeted me when he walked by outside the Church.

The interior is, of course, very beautiful.

Place for your soul and heart!
This Church has about 100 years history.

Gorgeous. Though large, it feels like a comfortable home. Photos are from the Midnight Christmas service currently being served at this moment. Come in and join us when we proclaim CHRIST IS BORN!

Be mindful it will always be crowded on Sundays for liturgy. Come early at 9 am for confession. During major Holy Days overcrowded- always come ahead of time for Christmas and Easter, during which expect to stay for at least 3, sometimes 5 hours. Attire should be appropriate: women in skirts, covering their head with a shawl, men in long pants, no shirts. Very traditional parish. Church has a small store that is open during the services. At other times the church may be opened to light a candle- just ring bell at the office door.

Very nice place to visit! Be ready to stand the whole time. The art and religion are beautiful. The people keep to themselves but if you ask questions before or after a service most likely someone will help you understand things. I recomend as a tourist site, it is beautiful. But also keep it respectful and dont go in while a Mass is going. Look up times to go before you show up. Expect no English.
