Sergiev Posad: Orthodox sight near Moscow | Must See Travel Vlog 

That wooden church is hidden treasure 🔥☦️❤️ so nice there 🥰🤗❤️🥰

Just came back from a two day trip to Sergiyev Posad, definitely want to go back😊Even saw the wooden church tucked away in the middle of nowhere.

More proof that every meal doesn't have to be a buffet. Sometimes, a snack is just right. These afternoon jaunts from the city, are great little road trips.

Great cinematography of a picture postcard town.

В Москве все куда-то бегут, город шумный, не рекомендую там жить. Я сам живу в городе поменьше в Сибири. За ролик лайк❤

Nice video 🙂☺️❤

Awesome video! Very informative I love the edits.

He is recognized as a saint in the Catholic Church as well. I will definitely visit there the next time I’m in Moscow.

Beautiful candy store, her dress was fantastic. Wonder how those monasteries and churches survived during USSR times. Edit = Found my answer "Meanwhile, Germans were opening churches in occupied territories to win the hearts and minds of the Orthodox faithful. Stalin decided it would be foolhardy to undermine Soviet authority by destroying churches once again; sacrificing state atheism for the sake of victory seemed a fair deal. Moreover, the new Patriarch Sergius was utterly loyal to the authorities. “We shall prove that the most devoted Orthodox follower can be a loyal citizen of the USSR,” he wrote." "Stalin’s deal with the clergy was attacked after his death in 1953. The new Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev pursued a fresh anti-religious campaign between 1958-65. The times, however, were less harsh than before the war: historian Vladislav Tsypin wrote that the new wave of repressions caused no bloodshed and almost no arrests. It was more about the economy: the state raised taxes to support the Church. Orthodoxy survived it."

Have you heard anything about Russia moving away from paper money and going to just electronic money, like they are saying the US is?
