Is Belgrade's Temple of St. Sava the most beautiful church on earth?
Belgrade’s Temple of St. Sava may just be the most beautiful church on earth!
With the completion of the interior mosaics, St. Sava rightfully takes it place amongst the most spectacular house's of worship anywhere in the world! Vogue Magazine compared St.Sava to "La Sagrada Família" in reference to years under construction of both churches, but St. Sava is about to cross the finish line, and the church is... just now open to the public!

The grandiose sanctuary and under-lying crypt boast some impressive numbers and features...
• St.Sava is the largest Orthodox church in The Balkans, and also ranks amongst the largest churches, mosques and temples worldwide! The dome structures are modeled after the Hagia Sophia in Istanbul, but that is where the similarity ends. St. Sava is over-the-top when it comes to artistic opulence!
• The church is gargantuan, and was designed to humble us mere mortals. Looking up, it seems incredible that Jesus’ outstretched arms spans 20 meters (66 feet)!
• Over 50 million semi-precious stones and 24k gold Murano glass tiles were placed to create the eye-popping mosaics. They look like paintings at first sight... we promise that you will be overwhelmed!
• The entire exterior is clad in white marble.
• The scalloped fascia is made of brown granite, not wood.
• It took 40 days to lift the 4,000 ton copper dome into place through the interior.
• The temple was conceived and plans drawn in the late 1800s, but construction did not actually commence until 1935.
• Thousands of workers have labored to construct the church over nearly a century, with over 300 artisans dedicated to the mosaics alone!
• Every surface, from floor to cupola is covered in exquisite artistic detail.
• There are 49 bells - the largest weighing in at 6.2 tons. On Christmas, the bells toll the Hymn to St. Sava.
• The mesmerizing Golden Crypt is located 7 meters directly below the sanctuary. Don't miss it! The Crypt gleams with ornate golden chandeliers, and you can really get up-close and personal with the stunning frescoes!
If you visited and were impressed with Notre Dame, Cologne, Westminster Abbey, the Vatican, Hagia Sophia and the other great cathedrals of Europe... put this one on your bucket list! St. Sava is other-worldly, and worth a trip to Belgrade all by itself!
