Church of the Dormition, Orthodox church in Heilongjiang, China.

The Church of the Dormition presents a traditional Orthodox architectural design with a central dome and crosses mounted on its exterior walls.

The church emerged during the expansion of Russian Orthodox missions in China following the Treaty of Nerchinsk in 1689, which established regular trade connections.

The church maintains Orthodox traditions through regular services in Russian and Chinese languages, connecting local and international congregants.

Visitors need prior authorization and must present identification documents to access the church grounds due to security protocols.

The structure remains one of three active Orthodox churches in China where regular religious services occur for the faithful community.
