13th of September. My native town.

Today I am in the town where I was born. It is a small town in Saint-Petersburg region called Tikhvin. Many tourists and religious pilgrims come hear to visit the monastery to see the Tikhvin’s miraculous icon of Heavenly Mother. It is one of the most important and worshiped Russian miraculous icon that was lost in the period of Second World War and it was long time being held in the USA. The Icon was given back to Tikhvin. It was a big celebration in the city so our president came here by helicopter. Monastery had been reconstructed for the getting back the icon. It is very beautiful and calm place now.
