I love this local church. Very historic and beautiful in all of its gilded glory. The icons are impressive and the Sunday morning liturgy is one not to be missed, especially for the beautiful choir. It’s quite a special treat to go and pay one’s respects in a church that will be far different than the experience one may have had if you’re used to a catholic mass. No pew. Everyone stands throughout the sermon. And it’s not rude to arrive late and immediately set about making the rounds of praying to the various icons. It’s more about one’s personal experience and connection with God. Highly...

Au cœur du Paris vivant et tumultueux, entre les édifices fiers de l'époque haussmannienne, se niche une curiosité architecturale qui tranche avec le décor urbain. La Cathédrale Saint-Alexandre-Nevsky, avec ses dômes brillants, est telle une perle rare dans un écrin de pierre.En franchissant le seuil, on est aussitôt saisi par une odeur d'encens, dense et pénétrante, qui semble avoir imprégné chaque recoin de cette enceinte sacrée. Les voûtes, hautes et imposantes, retiennent un silence solennel, seulement troublé par le murmure lointain des prières et le léger crépitement des bougies.Le sol de marbre, froid et lisse sous le pied, raconte à lui seul des siècles de passages dévots. L'éclat des chandelles révèle les dorures et les ornements délicats des icônes, qui observent, du haut de leur splendeur, les âmes des visiteurs.L'air, lourd de mysticisme, est imprégné d'une douceur orientale. Chaque recoin de cette cathédrale semble abriter un secret, une histoire, une confession. Les bancs en bois, patinés par le temps, portent les stigmates des espérances et des tristesses de générations de fidèles.L'atmosphère est dense, presque palpable, et l'on pourrait presque entendre le souffle du temps qui passe, égrainant les heures dans cette enceinte hors du temps.En sortant, les bruits de la ville reprennent leurs droits, mais l'empreinte de la cathédrale demeure, telle une mélodie lointaine, dans le cœur de celui qui...

I've personally been to over 70 churches in Paris, following Guide des visites d'églises published by Art Culture et Foi. First of all, I must state that this is one of the best churches I've seen in Paris center. It's so intense inside you could feel that this is a special place. I really wonder why it's not listed in the guide des visites d'églises... This place should imperatively be listed in the booklet... I'm very surprised that such a special place is not listed...

Paris’te beklemediğim kadar etkileyici ve farklı bir yapıydı Saint-Alexandre-Nevsky Katedrali. Şehrin tipik gotik veya Haussmann tarzı mimarisinden tamamen farklı olarak, tam anlamıyla Rus Ortodoks mimarisinin tüm zarafetini yansıtıyor. Altın kubbeleri ve detaylı cephe süslemeleriyle dışarıdan bakıldığında bile sizi etkiliyor. Katedral, Paris’in 8. bölgesinde yer alıyor ve biraz ara sokakta kaldığı için çok fazla turistin uğradığı bir yer değil bu da atmosferini daha da özel kılıyor. Sessiz, sakin, ruhani bir ortam sunuyor. İçerisi oldukça sade ama bir o kadar da anlamlı ikonalarla dolu. Ortodoks sanatına ilgi duyanlar için özellikle ilgi çekici olabilir. Içeride fotoğraf çekmek çoğunlukla yasak, bu yüzden anın tadını çıkarmak en doğrusu. Giriş ücretsiz ama bağış kabul ediliyor. Katedrale girerken sessiz olunması gerektiği ve kıyafet kurallarına dikkat edilmesi gerektiği unutulmamalı. Kadın ziyaretçilerin omuzlarını örtmeleri bekleniyor. Kültürel olarak hem Rus diasporasını hem de Paris’in çok uluslu yapısını yansıtması açısından ilgi çekici bir ziyaret noktası. Özellikle sanat, mimari ve dini yapılarla ilgilenen turistlerin mutlaka rotasına eklemesi gereken özel bir durak olduğunu düşünüyorum.
