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!
