The Cathedral of Saints Peter and Paul

#bucketlistreboot The cathedral is the seat of the Romanian Orthodox Archbishop of Tomis, as well as a monastery. Situated between Ovid Square and the Black Sea in front of the Archbishop’s Palace this Greco-Roman style cathedral offers great views towards the sea and stunning Orthodox paintings inside. In terms of size, it can be comparable to Sinaia Monastery. When comparing the inner paintings one can draw many similarities amongst the two but also with other Orthodox churches and monasteries. On the same street with the St. Paul and Peter Cathedral you can find the centre of Islam in Romania represented by the Grand Mosque. The Mosque itself wasn’t as impressive as the one in Sharm El-Sheikh but something to glance at nonetheless. #constanta #romania
