"In the finished symmetry of its domes it is beautiful at all times; but now the sunset works upon it a miracle of colour, and it glows a luminous blue against an orange field, like some great mosque lit up from within. Five times I saw the sun set beyond Mt Olga but in five hundred times it would not pall. It is the most delicate sight in all the land." H. H. Finlayson 1936.
