Nativity of the Most-Holy Theotokos
Saw this photo online and it stuck with me. The monastery sits quiet on the hillside with the morning mist settled around it, makes you think about how some places just hold the silence.

Mihaela Tudor Nice place. It's like you're drawn to sit there quietly for at least one morning.
Emily Baker Yeah that mist really settles in.
Ioana Stan This monastery is dedicated to Saint John the New from Suceava. The morning mist really gives it a special air.
Никола Ангеловски The monastery looks old, probably from the 15th century, with those thick walls and the small porch at the entrance. The stone is rough, it doesn't look restored too much. Interesting how it holds up on the slope.
Зоран Стојановски The monastery looks beautiful on that slope. I would like to see him up close.
ლელა ჯავახიშვილი Indeed, the fog surrounds the walls in such a way that it seems as if the whole monastery is standing still.
მაია ჯავახიშვილი It's a really interesting shot, those walls and the fog together. Where is this monastery from and when was it taken?
Олег Фёдоров The monastery on the slope looks strong, the walls are thick. It would be interesting to see him live at least once.
Thoma Nako I see it and I have noticed the fog that envelops the walls. Tell me, where is this monastery and when did they take the picture?
Тарас Панченко Yes, the walls are really strong, the stone is rough. And when is the service there, in the morning or in the evening? And is it possible to just drop in as a visitor?
Константин Беляев The monastery is clearly old, the walls are made of rough stone, without fresh plaster. Judging by the masonry and the small porch at the entrance, it is definitely 400–500 years old. I wonder how many times it was rebuilt.
