O atrakcjach
Szybkie fakty: Clinging dramatically to a steep cliff face, it houses stunning frescoes that have resisted centuries of weathering. The winding staircases and narrow balconies offer breathtaking views of the lush green forest below.
Najważniejsze atrakcje: A tiny chapel dedicated to the Virgin Mary inside the monastery is adorned with 16th-century frescoes showing intricate biblical scenes in vibrant colors. Visitors often pause at the balcony viewpoint where the entire valley unfolds like a lush, living painting.
Wskazówki od insiderów
- Wear sturdy shoes as paths and stairs can be steep and uneven.
- Carry water and sunscreen, especially in warmer months.
- Photograph the frescoes from a distance to avoid flash damage restrictions.
- Visit the viewpoint balcony last for a stunning finale to your tour.
