Верхотурский Свято-Николаевский мужской монастырь.
Старейший город Свердловской области называют духовным центром Урала потому, что
в Верхотурье находится много православных храмов и монастырей. На любой из улиц
видны купола, кресты и шпили колоколен. Кроме религиозных святынь, тут
сохранился каменный кремль, который был основан еще в конце XVI века. Белая
крепость на высоком утесе над рекой Тура оставляет сильное впечатление.
It's the oldest town of the region,
founded in 1598 according the order of the tzar Fyodor Ioannovich. 300 km from
Yekaterinburg. The town had two main meanings for the state for two centuries.
Verkhoturye is one of the most prominent religious centers in
Russia and dates back 400 years, making it the oldest city in the region. It is
located 300 km from Ekaterinburg, and offers you the chance to see some of the
most famous churches in Russia. This tour is a must for those who are interested
in the religious history of Russia.

style, within the town fortress, as well as the Cathedral of the Holy Trinity
(1703). You’ll visit the following functioning monasteries: Nikolayevsky
monastery, where the relic of the Saint Symeon of Verhoturye is interred,
