100-120 people were allowed into the temple due to restrictions on the level of humidity in the room, writes “Public”.
The cathedral is very old, more than a thousand years old, and it needs a limited number of people. Unfortunately, we cannot accommodate everyone who wants to participate. Because the modes of use of the cathedral limit this number. A person comes and brings humidity with him, especially since today the temperature is rising. Fungi are starting to grow and the frescoes are starting to eat away. Therefore, we must do this, and we must treat this with understanding,” said Nelya Kukovalskaya, general director of the Sofia Kyiv National Nature Reserve.
This year, Ukraine celebrates Christmas for the first time according to the new Lian calendar – December 25.
