The whole area is beautiful. Outside the monastery has fabulous grounds that are well looked after. The inside has amazing decorations on the walls and ceilings. It is no wonder why the original inhabitants chose to build here and make it a site of worship.

Pretty located place! You could get there by car, although the route is typically mountain one - tiny and wavy. Monastery by itself is known because of it's mosaics/ wall paintings.

These days a wonderful place to visit because you feel like you are almost alone in the Monastery. You can walk around relatively free and look at what you want to look at. We spent more time here, than we thought, because we also visited the museum (for which you have to pay 5€) and it was worth it! The church is really beautiful and the decorations there but also everywhere else in the monastery are stunning. It’s much bigger than we thought! Don’t miss going up the hill to the statue and higher up to the second church, which was locked unfortunately. Bit still the view looks amazing and the upper church is really beautiful outside.

First of all - not religious whatsoever. But worth visiting? Definitely. The way the spaces interact, the artwork in both mosaic and paint, absolutely everywhere - is very special. It's quite surreal leaving the tranquility of the monastery to be back on the open winding roads of the mountains.
