Introduction of Hagia Sophia Cathedral in Harbin-Tickets

Harbin Hagia Sophia Cathedral is located at No.88 Toulong Street, Daoli District. It is an AAAA tourist attraction in China. Going here to play, day and night are different feelings. It has Russian style and is one of the scenic spots that must be punched in when traveling to Harbin.

Introduction of scenic spots

Hagia Sophia, built in 1907, is a landmark building in Harbin. It is a well-preserved Byzantine building in China at present. The more striking part of this church is the roof form of typical Russian architectural style, with a huge onion-shaped dome, which looks magnificent. The walls of the church are made of clear water red bricks, surrounded by tents of different sizes, connected by stairs, and there are four doors in and out of the whole church.

It used to be the largest Orthodox church in the Far East. The church has a very exotic cultural landscape and urban customs, and it is also an important historical witness of tsarist Russia's invasion of northeast China and an important treasure for studying Harbin's modern history.

Hagia Sophia has been renamed "Harbin Museum of Architectural Art" before. Not many people believe in the Orthodox Church in China, so the church was converted into an art gallery. After reconstruction, the original pattern has changed and its function as a church has disappeared. However, locals and foreign tourists here prefer to call it "Hagia Sophia".

There is a big difference between visiting Hagia Sophia during the day and visiting at night. Whenever night falls, the night view of the church is more beautiful and exotic, just like a castle in a fairy tale, very dreamy.
