It is good that the children from Pskov came to Ostankino. The Church of the Assumption is beautiful there, especially when the sun shines through the upper windows. I wonder what they remembered the most - the iconostasis or the bell tower?

It's good that the children from Pskov came to Ostankino, that church is really beautiful when the sun shines through the upper windows. I wonder if the frescoes or the bells caught their attention more, because here in Niš, children always run first to the bell tower.

It is good that the children from Pskov came to Ostankino. My eldest son once took his grandchildren to a similar church, and they also remembered the sun playing on the icons the most. I wonder if they managed to climb the bell tower.

I would like to know if the children from Pskov made it to the belfry. My grandson, when he was little, remembered from such a visit mainly how the whole church resounded when they rang the bells.

It's interesting that you mentioned exactly those windows - I was also paying attention to how the light falls on the walls. The children from Pskov seemed to admire the bell tower more, because after the tour they asked if they could go up there. And when was the last time you were in Ostankino?

Good thing the guys from Pskov went straight to Ostankino. The church of the Dormition is indeed beautiful when the light from the high windows falls on the images. I also wonder if they managed to climb the bell, as my own son did last year on a similar visit.

Yes, those windows are really special, especially when the sun is low. Children from Pskov are always interested in the bell tower, my grandchildren also once asked the same question. And the last time I was in Ostankino was last year in the spring, in front of the Trinity, I put candles. And do you often visit there?
