Looking back through my travel photos I see that in many places we visited there was, on our agendas, an Abbey, Cathedral, Chapel, Church, Convent, Monastery, Mosque, Pagoda, Synagogue, Temple or other place of worship. As we travel along the road I often take snaps of God's many houses we pass by. These buildings range from ordinary to ostentatious.
I was fearful of the difficult Z post. When I looked at my keywords I discovered that I had visited several Z places and that I had photos of churches from some of them:
Zakynthos,
Zakopane, Zanzibar and Zayatsky. So for a change my Z post was easy to compile.
Our first stop is in Zakynthos in Greece. As we drove around the island we saw several churches. I only have vague memories of this island so am pleased that I will visit again this year.

| This church was tucked in the corner of the main square. |
 |
| We spent time at very old church |
 |
| Art in the old church |
 |
| We spotted this church on a hill |
 |
| and saw two yellow churches on our drive |
 |
| Yet another church snapped from the bus. |
On a coach tour in Poland we visited the charming town of Zakopane. As well as taking a funicular ride up to a mountaintop we visited a couple of local churches and a cemetery.

The Chapel of The Saint Christ’s Heart in Jaszczurówka

| Altar |
 |
| A helpful guide in English |
 |
| I didn't record the name of this next church |
 |
| I suspect that it was dedicated to the Virgin Mary |
 |
| Mary had a significant spot above the altar |
We managed to squeeze the usual visits to a church, market and pther historical sites on our day in Zanzibar.
 |
| Christ Church - The Anglican Cathedral in Zanzibar |

| Above the altar |
 |
| Beautiful woodwork |
We reached the uninhabited island of Zayatsky in a local vessel on a beautiful afternoon.. The island has a connection to the magnificent Solavetsky Monastery that we had visited that morning.

| Approaching St Andrew's Church by boat |
 |
| As the church was tiny we had to enter in small groups |
 |
| The church was splendidly decorated. It was definitely worth the wait to enter |
