Cathedral of Christ the Saviour

You simply can’t get away from this church if you are on the western part of Moscow. Officially, it’s called Cathedral of Christ the Saviour, and even though it looks to be hundreds of years old, it was actually completed in 2000. There was a church on the same site that was originally built in the 19th century, which the current church was modeled after. Interestingly, after the Soviet Revolution after WW1, the church was demolished and finally in 1958 there was a large public pool on the spot.
