It's the city's landmark building. Of neo-Byzantine and neo-Romanesque inspiration, the Orthodox cathedral was built between 1936 and 1946 and can accommodate 5,000 standing worshippers. Its monumental appearance is impressive: 63 m long, 35 m wide, 80 m high. The ochre and yellow of the brick and the green and gold of the tiles form an elegant color combination. Its bells, each weighing 8 tonnes, were cast from rare metals from Sumatra and Borneo. Inside, the icons are superb. Some are on display in a basement museum.

Au bout de la place de la Victoire, face au théâtre national, cette magnifique cathédrale orthodoxe s'impose avec à ses pieds un espace de verdure. monument imposant avec de très belles décorations aussi bien extérieures qu'à l'intérieur.
