The Ascension Cathedral in Novocherkassk, Russia is probably one of the biggest and most ornately built churches I have ever seen, and I have seen a lot of churches.

This five-domed building stands 75 meters tall.

The entrance is free, but there is a dress code; as in other Russian Orthodox Churches.

Lucy & Matt

Lucy was born and raised in Russia.  She was traveling the world when she met her American husband Matt.  They love to travel with their daughter to the not-so-touristy destinations, like mountains, forests and small towns. Usually, they rent cars for their trips since you can't catch a bus to the places they like to go. They have driven through many countries and eight national capitals and can help with questions regarding rental cars and driving in some of these places.
