St. Peter & Paul Orthodox Church


With my recent find of the Cathedral of the Madeleine, I started out on an adventure to uncover other religious treasures located in Salt Lake City. Just 3 blocks South East of the epicenter of downtown is a small hidden masterpiece. Walking through the doors of the chapel you come across a painted blue sky surround with beautiful icons reminiscent of the byzantine era.

Cathedral's South Facade


Mesmerized by the interior of the Cathedral of the Madeleine,  I went back for a second trip to photograph the beautiful details laid in stone. Above the main door of the Cathedral lays a intricate facade. It amazes me that there is such talent that can carve this massive art by hand.
