I could be wrong, but I think there are also some of these beautiful wooden churches in Slovakia and Poland too. I wonder if there are any in Russia or Belarus?

In all fairness, I’ve seen pictures of wooden churches in Sweden too. Regrettably, apparently Protestant, since the traditional wooden Catholic churches were burned down or just dismantled as of the Protestant revolt in that country. 😦

You will be pleasantly surprised when you will get to Lviv, Yaremcha, or any other Carpathian regions on Christmas celebrations.
Especially beautiful there in the Carpathian mountains.
 
The beautiful wooden churches in the Carpathian region of Ukraine
 
Today I visited village Dibrova, this village is located close to the resort area of salt lakes.
This Church i visited today in Dibrova. Transcarpathian region in Ukraine.
Greek Catholic Church of the 16th century.
(functioned from 1561 until 1947.
in 1947 was closed until 1990)
this is what I was able to read in a translation from the Romanian.
Several villages in the area are the Romanian-speaking villages including Dibrova.
These beautiful regions of Ukraine will have a great potential for spa tourism.
It is unknown exactly when here came the first missionaries.
Some say that Vlachs brought the Christianity to these lands, some believe that even the Apostle Andrew who went by ‘‘the salted way’’ was the first preacher of the alive Christian faith, but it was interesting to notice that the small wooden Church of the early period of the 16th century is still existing.
