Stormy Day on Kizhi Island - a photo on Flickriver

            It was a very stormy day when I visited Kizhi Island in Russia.The island is near the center of Lake Onega in the Republic of Karelia, Russia. Churches on the island were known from at least the 15th century. The population was rural. Most villages had disappeared from the island by the 1950s and now only a small rural settlement remains. In the 18th century, two major churches and a bell tower were built on the island, which are now known as the Kizhi Pogost, which is a UNESCO World Heritage site.  The Church has 22 domes and was hand built only with axes and no nails.
