One of many Orthodox Churches/Cathedrals in Bulgaria. It’s a must to visit whenever you can any Churches/Cathedrals as these will give great imagination on how rich Bulgaria is with their history and architecture. Visited this place there was baptism happening and it makes more memorable visit. Definitely a must place when you’re in Varna.
