Harbin's iconic Saint Sophia Cathedral captured in snow
The Saint Sophia Cathedral is covered with snow in Harbin, Northeast China's Heilongjiang province on Nov 9 as the city welcomed its first snowfall of the year. A former Russian Orthodox church built in 1907, the Saint Sophia Cathedral is a typical example of Byzantine architecture. Its main structure is laid out like a cross with the main hall topped with a green dome. [Photo/VCG] |
