The Holy Assumption cathedral is Christian Orthodox church and it is divine place. It is recommended to visit. If you are not Christian Orthodox, a blessing will be required from the church priest if you are allowed to enter the church.

I arrived after sunset and the building was closed to public. However, the attendant opened the gate and let a group of us into the premises. We spoke a little and upon finding out that I had travelled from far, asked us to stay and she got a priest to bring us around. It was amazing to see the historical and cultural importance of this place. It was built by volunteers and then later left in disrepute for a long time before being restored to its former glory. The priest who brought us around, gave us in depth details about the history of the building and about Catholicism.
