The most beautiful place to celebrate Easter.

The church is located just under the Uzhotsky pass and the church itself seems to have merged with the picturesque slopes. On the way, you feel that you are entering the romantic world of mountains, and this wave of pleasure from the contemplation of nature is mixed with a premonition of a miracle. The Uzhok wooden church of St. Michael is a kind of visiting card of Transcarpathia. It is the first of the outstanding architectural monuments to meet travelers. This is one of the most interesting buildings of the Boykov style. The church was built by master Pavlo Toniv from the nearby village of Bitlya and Ivan Tsyganyn from the village of Tyhogo. The builders finished the work on June 11, 1745, which is recorded on the log house. Other inscriptions on the log house add touches to the history of the church: "1895 Hyrych Petro the curator weighed" (then the church was weighed down and the lower logs of the log houses were replaced) and others. It is said that the church was originally built high on the mountainside, but it was difficult for old people to climb up there and the church was moved down the slope, almost to the road. It's a pity that it was closed, because the iconostasis, carvings, etc. have been preserved inside. St. Michael's Church was included in the UNESCO World Heritage List and even in Soviet times was listed as an architectural monument. She has been extremely popular for 100 years: she has been drawn and printed about her.

Amazing, beautiful pearl of wooden architecture, but (!) The community does not let in, and even the surrounding area. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, and here it is ... I hope it will not be so
