St. Nicholas Cathedral, Eastern Orthodox cathedral in Ahyeon-dong, Seoul, South Korea

The cathedral stands with its Byzantine-style architecture, featuring domes, mosaics, and intricate designs characteristic of Eastern Orthodox religious buildings.

The original structure from 1903 served the Russian Ecclesiastical Mission until its destruction in the Korean War, leading to the current building's completion in 1968.

The cathedral maintains two significant icons from early Russian missionaries: the Theotokos of Tikhvin and Seraphim of Sarov within its walls.

Regular services take place throughout the week, with schedules and additional information available through the Greek Orthodox Church website in Seoul.

Greek soldiers stationed with the United Nations forces contributed funds for the construction of this cathedral, marking an international collaboration.
