Nice, Russian Orthodox Saint Nicholas Cathedral.
This Cathedral is one of the most spectacular buildings in Nice. It is quite near to the railway station and about a fifteen minute walk from the city centre.
It is the largest Russian Orthodox place of worship outside Russia itself and a pretty magnificent piece of Architecture. It was built early in the 20th century by order of Tsar Nicholas II (hence the name?), in order to service the needs of the growing Russian inhabitants of Nice.
We didn't venture inside unfortunately to visit the icons and see the decorative woodwork.
