O atrakciji
Brze činjenice: Zidovi ovog manastira još uvek čuvaju 900 fragmenata originalnih zidnih slika iz 19. veka, uključujući retku tehniku freske koja kombinuje uljanu boju i temperu. Njegova dva glavna zvona teška su 520 kg i 1.200 kg, i još uvek se oglašavaju svakog jutra u 6.00.
Istaknuto: Iza glavnog oltara skrivena je mala podzemna kapela kojoj se može pristupiti samo kroz tajna vrata iza ikonostasa. Zidovi kapele obloženi su hiljadama fragmenata mozaika koje su ručno izradili monasi koji su preživeli Drugi svetski rat, a nijedan mozaik nije istog oblika.
Insajderski saveti
- Bring a scarf or shawl as women are required to cover their heads when entering the main church.
- The best photo spot is at the northeast corner of the garden, where the golden dome reflects in a small pond in the afternoon.
- Come on Sunday at 09.00 to hear the monks' choir live with no extra charge.
- Ignore the souvenir kiosks at the main entrance. Buy monastery-made honey directly at the small shop next to the monastery office. It is 40% cheaper.
