    Holy place. Special for me. I love this atmosphere of spirituality and purity. No matter how upset, depressed or simply burnt out from fatigue and everyday worries a person comes, peace, joy, and strength are found here. The soul seems to be cleansed and filled. And the beauty of the garden is like Heaven on earth! I really like to just sit in silence in the garden gazebo, doing nothing, not thinking about anything, contemplating... Truly the life-giving power of Faith in this place! I recommend visiting!

    It’s beautiful, like any nunnery. Really beautiful. Well done nuns. They do something with their own hands, take care of the cats. I bought an interesting book for stores, facts from the Bible, confirmed by science. There is no downside at all. But if you go on purpose, you can go to another place, everything is new, not prayed for, and go back - it’s difficult to order a taxi. But the place is wonderful and beautiful, on the mountain, with a good view.

    This monastery is located on the road to Kislovodsk. It is located in such a way that it is simply impossible not to notice it. A paved road leads to the monastery, there is a parking lot and a statue of St. George the Victorious greets visitors, a very beautiful and well-groomed area. In addition to Christian utensils, the church shop sells an assortment of pies, soft drinks and ice cream. The novices’ place of residence is located not far from the temple, but entry is prohibited; there are several greenhouses and vineyards in the surrounding area. A very positive place.

    The temple stands on a high hill. This hill offers beautiful views of the surrounding area. The temple grounds are very well maintained. Beautiful flower beds, the smell of flowering plants. Grace On the territory of the temple there is an Orthodox shop where you can buy the products of the monastery: honey, cheese, dairy products, herbal teas.

    Beautiful monastery. The temple itself and the surrounding area are very well maintained. On the territory there is an icon shop - where you can buy icons, oils, herbs and even pies and buns and a water-blessed chapel - where you can drink some water, benches for tired travelers. There are even binoculars. The temple is located on a hill and therefore a beautiful view opens up in front of us.

    a very strong and clean place... when you get into the temple, it’s as if you are opening your soul... you feel this kind and powerful energy until you get “goosebumps”.. . very beautiful flower beds in the park at the monastery... everything is well maintained... cleaned up... the nuns' cells are fenced but also very attractive from the outside... there is a bathhouse... it stands as a separate building... and its own source with holy water... everything is in marble... beautiful... . fundamentally... and solemnly... I received an indelible impression and feeling from being in this holy place... I also advise you to try the pies that are cut at the monastery...))) very tasty....

    The monastery is located on a mountain. The territory is beautiful and there is a monument to St. George the Victorious. There is a beautiful view of the city of Essentuki from all sides. A large church bench. It’s calm inside the temple. You can stand and feel your soul. A conversation opens up with the saints looking at you from the icons. When The service is underway - the soul breathes.

    The temple stands on an amazing place, from where there is a stunning view of Essentuki and the Caucasus Range, and Elbrus is visible in good weather. The territory of the monastery is being improved all the time, there is a store on the territory with church supplies and products prepared by the hands of nuns, the pies there are very tasty) there is also a font, there is a place to get holy water, at the entrance there are baskets with scarves and skirts.

    A very beautiful and good monastery. Having studied the place from photographs, video reviews and reviews, we can conclude that this, although recent, has already gained popularity as a women’s monastery. There is an improvement in monasticism in these places, which cannot but please us. The Monastery of St. George was built on Mount Dubrovka and is surrounded by clean air, a peaceful atmosphere and beautiful nature. There is a park nearby, surrounded by lovely landscapes. The monastery itself is not that big, but it is built with design. The monastery has a bathhouse, a chapel with water, and a separate room for performing the sacrament of baptism. There is a beautiful bell tower, the temple itself is very beautifully made inside. There are tiles on the floor, there are many beautiful icons around, the relics of saints, as well as the relics of St. George the Victorious. All the walls are decorated with frescoes. The temple is furnished in a very atmospheric and majestic way! Services are held daily, so everyone can visit the temple. Also at the monastery there is an orphanage for girls “Sofia”, children with a difficult background live there, but in this place they are very carefully taken care of. They are raised by special teachers, the girls engage in art, dancing, singing and other creative activities, and also study at school and sometimes visit different places. The children are very happy, because they are trying to make sure that they are safe and feel loved and cared for. They also visit the temple, and sometimes even help in reading the service prayers. The sisters and novices of the monastery have their own obediences, this can be chores, icon painting, etc. As in all monasteries, everything is on schedule. There is also an icon shop at the monastery, where there are many different beautiful handmade icons and many other church utensils. This is a small and cute monastery, which is a landmark of the area and an Orthodox value! Therefore, everyone can come here to pray, attend services, and also, if anyone wishes, to stay in the monastery as a worker, help in obedience and work for the glory of God! They also promise to build a new very large temple in honor of the Ascension of the Lord, the first in this area, I think it will soon become accessible to pilgrims and other visitors, including local parishioners. For additional information, everyone can look and explore this place again . In general, this is a wonderful monastery, with beautiful Byzantine-style architecture and wildlife, I advise everyone to visit this blessed and unusual place!

    (Translated by Google) A very beautiful and fertile place that has become a landmark of Kavminvod is the St. George Convent, located near the city of Essentuki, on the federal highway Mineralnye Vody - Kislovodsk. The golden domes of the temple are visible from afar and serve as an excellent guide. The top of Dubrovka is a magnificent observation deck. An unusual view of the majestic Elbrus, Mashuk, Beshtau opens from here. (Original) Очень красивое и благодатное место, которое стало достопримечательностью Кавминвод — Свято-Георгиевский женский монастырь, расположенный близ города Ессентуки, на федеральной трассе Минеральные Воды – Кисловодск. Золотые купола храма видны издалека и служат отличным ориентиром. Вершина Дубровки - великолепная смотровая площадка. Отсюда открывается непривычный вид на величественный Эльбрус, Машук, Бештау.

    St. George's Convent is located in a very beautiful place! The territory is landscaped and well-groomed, there is beauty all around and it’s very pleasant to be there! The temple itself is very beautiful, there are many icons, the holidays are very beautiful, you can pray and light candles, order services! The view from the mountain on which the monastery is located is impressive. We definitely need to visit this place and thank God for what he gave us! There is a church shop where you can buy candles, icons, and bracelets woven by nuns. They also sell products made by the hands of nuns. Such delicious baked goods, semi-finished products!

    Расположен на горе. Заехать со стороны Кисловодска проблематично (много приходится проехать до разворота, а потом обратно). Вид на Ессентуки хороший. Храм красивый.

    Свято-Георгиевский монастырь расположен в красивейшем месте на возвышенности. Куда не обрати взор - за пределами монастыря открываются не обыкновенные виды, окружен красивейшей природой и горами. В храме богатое убранство и очень красивая роспись. Зайдя в храм невольно забыааешь о мирском. . .При храме в лавке можно приобрести иконы, заказать молебен, порадовала свежая выпечка - сделано с душой.

    We've been to this wonderful place several times. Beauty external and internal! Silence and grace! Peace and tranquility! I was lucky enough to swim in the font several times - it’s an indescribable feeling of cleansing and liberation! If we are in your area, we will definitely visit this place of worship!
