]]>Budapest, Hungary: St. Stephen’s Basilica
Budapest is a common tourist destination for young people as it has a great party scene and isn’t very expensive. It’s also got plenty of awesome religious architecture, such as St. Stephen’s Basilica. This church, with its iconic dome, is over 100 years old. It’s still used today for Roman Catholic worship, but it’s also a common spot for tourists.
St. Petersburg, Russia: Naval Cathedral of St. Nicholas
This architectural mammoth is truly a sight to behold. With its soaring gold-encrusted domes and beautifully wrought facade, it’s one of the loveliest things you’ll see on your trip. It’s now a Russian-Orthodox church, so you can attend a service there if you wish. In the past, it functioned as a movie theatre and a naval museum as well.
Kutna Hora, Czech Republic: St. Barbara’s Church
This church is truly a relic of history, with construction beginning in the 13th century. The structure wasn’t completed until the 19th century, and frescoes from medieval times along with old gothic architecture are still on display. You don’t want to miss this church, as it’s also a world heritage site to boot.

]]>Shinkyo Bridge
Perhaps the most famous feature of this beautiful part of the world is Shinkyo Bridge. Built in the 1600s, the wonderfully intricate red bridge is a relatively new addition to the area. It said to be the gateway to Nikko.
Daiya River
A gushing river runs through the mountains, past the city, and under our Shinkyo bridge. It is worshiped in traditional Japanese religion. If you spend enough time with it, you can feel its soul and personality for yourself.
Shinto Shrine
Near the river and the bridge is an ancient Shinto shrine, built in 767. This is a beautiful traditional Japanese sacred structure used to house sacred objects.
Tosho-gu Shrine
In addition to the Shinto shrine, the city also has the Tosho-gu shrine. The shrine is home to a 17th-century carving which is said to be the origin of the proverb or The Wise Monkeys.

Никогда не повторяйте моей ошибки! 
Позже поймёте, почему. ⠀ ⠀⠀После пляжа мы ещё немного прогулялись, пообедали и купили экскурсию на следующий день в местной лавке. ⠀ ⠀⠀К вечеру мне стало плохо, кожа начала гореть, голова кружиться. Но я думала, всё пройдет, так как сгораю я частенько и обычно всё заканчивается хорошо. Но не в этот раз. ⠀ ⠀⠀Продолжение следует… ⠀ #prohope_travel #iamhope_srilanka

]]>
What most people don’t know is that in addition to the 3 major religions, there is a 4th section of the old city — the Armenian quarter. By far the smallest quarter, with a population of around 2,500, there is still plenty to explore here, including the famous St. James Cathedral, a museum, and a classic Armenian restaurant.
The famous Jewish and Muslim quarters are crowded and filled with much history and holy sites. The Western Wall is the holiest Jewish site while right above it lies the Dome of the Rock, the place where Muhammad is said to have risen to heaven. Both quarters are filled with religious people, prayer sites, and old windy alleyways filled with shops and restaurants.
The Christian Quarter is home to about 40 holy Christian sites, including the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, the site where Jesus is said to have been crucified, buried, and resurrected. There are many different forms of Christianity in the small Christian quarter, and you will see pilgrims and priests from all over the world.
