IMG_6760 The Rotunda of the Resurrection Cathedral (1656-1685)
New Jerusalem Monastery
Istra, Moscow Oblast, Russia
The rotunda roof structure (blue) and the gold dome on the right have been both recently rebuilt after their destruction by the retreating German army in late 1941. The scar at the bottom left is where the bell tower once stood; the bell tower is apparently now being reconstructed.
