This one and only wooden Cathedral in the world is located in Panfilovets’ Park. Another unique fact about this Cathedral is that it was built without using any nails. It was used as a museum after the ‘Revolution’ but was later restored as a Russian Orthodox Cathedral. This Cathedral was constructed between 1904-1907 and was initiated by the Bishop of Turkestan and Tashkent. The Cathedral miraculously escaped destruction during the 1911 earthquake. The interior and the exterior of the church is very elaborately designed, and a walk around it definitely recommended to admire the architecture of the Cathedral. Visitors to the Church are expected to respect its customs which are followed strictly.
