The Karakol Orthodox Church is a historic church located in the city of Karakol, Kyrgyzstan. It was built in the early 19th century by Russian Orthodox settlers, who arrived in the region in the late 18th century. The church is considered to be one of the oldest and most significant examples of Russian religious architecture in Central Asia.

The church was constructed using traditional Russian architectural styles, including onion-shaped domes and a white-washed facade. It was designed by Ivan Petrovich Mironov, a renowned architect who was responsible for many other significant buildings throughout the Russian Empire.

The church has undergone several renovations and restorations over the years, but it still retains much of its original character and charm. Today, it is an important cultural and religious landmark in Karakol and attracts many visitors each year.
