After visiting St Petersburg our ship steamed to Mandrogi and later to Kizhi where we saw the amazing wooden church there, made entirely of wood, including the nails. When we were there it was undergoing renovation work and so in my photo you see the middle onion domes are missing. I bought a book which had a photo of the church when entire. We saw a man making shingles to be fixed in the domes. Someone pointed out that the ends of his first and second fingers on his left hand were missing!! Use Google to find more details of this church.
