A spectacular place of worship that may at first shock you with its massive brick outlook with little decorations but that will reward you to the fullest with its exquisite murals Catedrala „Sfânta Treime” din Arad, România, este una dintre cele mai impunătoare lăcașuri de cult ortodox din vestul țării. Văzută dinspre Lacul Pădurice (cunoscut și ca Lacul Potgoria), catedrala se înalță maiestuos, dominând peisajul urban cu silueta sa monumentală. Reflecția turlelor strălucitoare se oglindește în apa liniștită a lacului, creând o imagine pitorească și armonioasă între natură și arhitectură. Edificiul impresionează prin dimensiunile sale grandioase și stilul arhitectural bizantin, cu influențe neoromânești, având multiple turle, dintre care cea centrală, încununată de o cruce, se distinge prin înălțimea sa. Fațada este realizată din cărămidă aparentă și piatră, iar detaliile decorative și mozaicurile completează frumusețea construcției. Dinspre lac, catedrala pare un simbol al spiritualității care veghează asupra orașului și a trecătorilor care se plimbă pe aleile parcului ce înconjoară luciul de apă. Much more beautiful on the inside. The altar screen was huge. The frescos are very brightly coloured and cover ever bit of wall and polar, with the pillars even painted to show the effect of extra roman style pillars. The view from the tear of the church on the balcony is a great way to look on the alter screen. Definitely worth a visit. Odd thing was that there was not any seating in the main area only at the sides, and the priests conducted the marriage ceremony in the middle of the church. Simply breathtaking. One of the more worthwhile sites to visit in Arad. The exquisite interior just made me want to stay to appreciate it longer. Beautiful building. I did not go in. I don’t know if it was open. A beautiful landmark. I was shocked by the beauty I have found inside the cathedral. This is surely a gem underrated by tourism. It should be a more searched sight for sure. All the decorations inside blowed my mind. It’s a beautiful Arad Orthodox Cathedral. It’s very young building but looks like 200 years old. Really traditional. Must to visit and spend time and check your inner peace in the church. The construction started at the beginning of 90’s. Beautiful cathedral, they were having a special mass which I went to see. Impresionanta This establishment is newly constructed and impressive. The mural paintings inside are mind-blowing! I think that this one is one of the most beautiful orthodox churches that I saw! beautiful mural painting inside the church If you visit Arad, the Holy Trinity Cathedral is a must-see. The interior is absolutely breathtaking and leaves a lasting impression. Посетих Арад с надежда да открия по-малко известна, но интересна дестинация. За съжаление, останах изключително разочарована. Градът е занемарен, с неприветлива атмосфера и почти липсваща туристическа инфраструктура. Въпреки наличието на велоалеи, те масово се използват за паркиране, а трафикът е хаотичен и агресивен – шофьорите карат с висока скорост и често псуват или викат през прозорците. Не се почувствах нито спокойна, нито добре дошла. Местните хора, с малки изключения, бяха груби и незаинтересовани. Градът няма поддържани зони за разходка, почти никакъв чар, а културните обекти не компенсират усещането за сивота и безредие. За мен това беше загубено време и със сигурност не бих се върнала. Не препоръчвам Арад като туристическа дестинация.
