Colonnade in Sergiev Posad

The colonnade (modern building) is located on a hill 900 meters from the walls of the Lavra. From here one of the best panoramic views of the monastery of St. Sergius and the city opens up. A good place to take unforgettable souvenir photos.

Sergiev Posad is the only city in the Moscow region included in the "Golden Ring" of Russia. It is considered the spiritual capital of Orthodoxy, the heart of the city is the Holy Trinity Lavra of St. Sergius - a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
