The temple is made a monument of world significance by a giant square of a mosaic field covering facades and internal walls. The total mosaic cover of the temple covers an area of over 7000 square meters. This is a unique collection of domestic mosaic art. which has no equal in Russia. Inside the Savior on Blood there is not a single painting work, its walls are almost entirely `covered` with a mosaic carpet.
