St. Peter and Paul Church is located on the hillside of Karlovy Vary. It is a very luxurious Orthodox church with a very dazzling golden onion-shaped tower. The church was built in 1897 for Russians who came to Karlovy Vary for spa treatments in the 19th century. It was designed by architect Gustav Widemann, who referenced the ancient church of Ostankin near Moscow. The whole church is in Byzantine style, there are very exquisite carvings on the pillars, and the interior decoration is luxurious.

Baroque architecture with 11 meters high main altar, exquisite wooden statues, rows of sculptures of the Holy Child, stained glass and spectacular organ, extremely stately and beautiful
On a small earth slope, it looked very luxurious. When I went there, it was closed, and I licked it through the fence. One person pushed open the outside gate for me, and then reached out to ask for money, which was a bit scary. The river also made do with a panoramic view.
Get off at Karlovy Vary Station and cross the road, follow the road up the mountain, and pass many colorful villas, turn three corners to see the church of the white onion building, which is an Orthodox church, built in 1897, five beautiful gilded domes and gates are impressive.
Compared to other magnificent churches, it is nothing but a good view of the city on the hill in the valley
The exterior and interior are covered with murals, golden roofs. The most depressing thing was that we went up and found that it didn't seem to be open to the outside world, and the road in front of the church was very narrow and not suitable for taking pictures.
