Postcard from Russia!

Today I got a nice postcard from Russia! It shows a nice view of the Dormition Cathedral in Vladimir, also known as the Assumption Cathedral, which is a cathedral built by Andrew the Pious. It was once the mother church of Russia in the 13th and 14th centuries and was also the country's largest for quite some time. It was originally built in the 12th century and was expanded in the 19th century. The card is an official Postcrossing card, RU-2983003. Thanks Maria!
