Spring (April-May) and autumn (September-October) are the most ideal times to visit as the weather is mild. Going in the early morning hours allows you to both avoid the crowds and watch the fascinating play of daylight on the stone walls.
Savjeti za budžet
The entrance fee is negligibly low, usually ranging between 50,000-100,000 Iranian rials (about 1-2 USD). Bring cash with you, as finding an ATM nearby may be difficult.

O atrakciji
Brze činjenice: Legendarni manastir koji je inspirisao pokušaje letenja Hazarfena Ahmeda Čelebija, sa svojim kamenim zidovima iz 7. stoljeća, nudi tišinu izvan vremena. Građevina koja nosi tragove četiri različite civilizacije poznata je kao jedna od najstarijih kršćanskih građevina u Iranu.
Istaknuto: Kada stanete u hladovinu platana koji se uzdiže u dvorištu, pronalazite vremensku kapsulu izgubljenu među armenskim i perzijskim natpisima uklesanim u kamen. Ispod svakog kamena skrivena je molitva, a iza svakog luka vjekovni šapat.
Insajderski savjeti
- The best time for taking photos is between 15:00-17:00 in the afternoon, because the sunlight paints the stone arches in the courtyard a golden color.
- Choose comfortable shoes; sneakers are ideal for walking on the stony paths around the monastery.
- Wearing a headscarf is not mandatory when entering the monastery, but it is a good idea to keep a shawl handy out of respect.
- Do not forget to buy handmade jams sold in the nearby small village; the cherry jam is especially famous.
