It's nice that they show the Peter and Paul Cathedral complex, I've always wanted to see those murals up close. Interesting how they managed to keep everything after so many years.

Григорий Макаров

Yes, the murals there are really amazing, especially in the lower church. I was in Kazan a couple of years ago for work, I came in for half an hour and couldn’t tear myself away from these colors. It’s good that they show it more often now, maybe my daughter will see it live someday.

Good that they show the Peter and Paul complex in Kazan. The mosaics and frescoes that Gregory says in the lower church look impressive from the photos. I would like to see them sometime with my wife, as a little excursion.

Good idea with the press tour, it's long overdue. The murals in the lower church really hold up tightly, I went there for work in 2019 from Yekaterinburg - the paints are like new. I wonder if there will now be regular excursions for ordinary people, and not just for journalists.

Yes, these frescoes at the bottom of the church are really impressive, I saw them five years ago during a visit to Kazan. Too bad it's mostly for journalists at the moment, I hope they organize tours for everyone soon.

Julien Martin

Yes, these lower frescoes are truly unique, we are left speechless every time. I went there two years ago with my eldest daughter and we were able to go up to the upper gallery, it was even more beautiful. Let's hope the open houses come soon, it would be a shame to keep it only for journalists.

Yes, these lower frescoes also marked me when I saw them in Kazan four years ago with my husband. I hope they will open to the public quickly, it would be a shame to keep them only for journalists. Were you able to go up to the upper gallery too?
