Stay in a Subterranean Hotel in Coober Pedy, Australia

"Beneath the surface, art galleries and churches also dot the outback town, including the spectacular Serbian Orthodox Church. Built in 1993, the church was dug out by volunteers, and at its deepest point, reaches 56 feet below the earth." - Travel + Leisure Editors

Couple of minutes drive out on the edge of town. $5.00 donation entry and candles $2.00. Bring cash as it’s a honour system. Beautiful church open 24/7, stained glass, underground, peaceful and quiet. So amazing that places like this are open to the public. Enjoyable and well worth seeing.

Well worth a visit when you're in Coober Pedy. If you have an early start, don't worry. They're open 24/7. We went at 7am on a Wednesday and there was nobody around. Just after sunrise, the light was incredible coming their the windows. The gentle music playing gave it a really sacred feel. $5 entry fee recommended to maintain the church.

For a town like Coober Pedy this is quite flash. It’s eery but also nice. A rare sight and therefore would recommend the slight detour. If you enjoy architecture you’ll enjoy the structure of this church. Have cash handy for a donation to enter.

Great place! Underground church, 15 meters below ground level. Well kept, clean, beautiful stained glass windows. Peaceful and serene.

An absolutely beautiful Serbian Orthodox church completely underground in Coober Pedy. We nearly didn’t go inside as the outside looked baron and unremarkable but I’m so glad we did. This church is amazing and definitely worth a visit. Highly recommend.

In the Coober Pedy Traveller Guide it was said, it's free to enter 24/7. Then you walk in front of the church but you basically need to pay 5 AU$ as a "donation" for entering... Just say then you need to pay 5 bucks instead.

A bit of a drive out of town, and rather rough dirt road entry, but the church itself is amazing. There was some appropriate background music playing, but not too loud. The stained glass windows are beautiful. Currently no church services are held there, but you are invited to put a donation in a box at the entry, which no doubt contributes to the church's upkeep. The whole place is clean and well-maintained.

Larger of the three underground churches! Largest of the three churches and more on the outskirts of the town. They ask for a donation before entering the church and then there are boxes inside for more donations! Worth a visit as again is a unique experience! even has stained glass windows!
