St. Nicholas Naval Cathedral, located in Saint Petersburg, Russia, is a stunning example of Baroque architecture, notable for its striking blue and white facade adorned with golden domes. Constructed between 1753 and 1762, the cathedral was built to serve the naval community and is dedicated to Saint Nicholas, the patron saint of sailors. Its interior is equally impressive, featuring intricate iconostasis, frescoes, and a rich array of iconography.
