Tips

Participation in the Orthodox service provides an unforgettable experience. I heartily recommend individual tourists to visit the church on Sunday and take part in the Divine Liturgy. If you don't take pictures, no one will ask you out, I guarantee it! You will hear beautiful, inspired songs, smell incense, see dozens of lighted candles. The mysticism of the Orthodox liturgy is difficult to describe - it impresses everyone, without exception.

The Orthodox Church of the Holy Wisdom of God in Białystok, built in 1998. Architecturally interesting, somewhat unusual for Orthodox churches in Podlasie, it is modeled on Byzantine churches from the early periods of Christianity. Richly decorated with frescoes by Greek artists, the work was directed by the painter Konstantinos Xenopoulos, and the polychrome in the dome itself is a gift from the Patriarchate of Constantinople.
