The Cathedral of Saint Sava (Temple of Saint Sava) in Belgrade, is the Balkans's largest Orthodox church building. It ranks amongst the ten largest church buildings in the world. The church is dedicated to Saint Sava, the founder of the Serbian Orthodox Church.
It is built on the Vračar plateau, on the location where it is believed that his remains were burned in 1595 by the Ottoman Empire's Sinan Pasha. From its location, it dominates Belgrade's cityscape, and is perhaps the most monumental building in the city.
Thanks go to Ana for this great card and even nicer landscape stamps!
