Wow! What amazing photos! It looks like a very special place!
Thank you! It is indeed!
Those inside ceilings are fantastic, the art and craft that has gone into making them so spectacular is special. Certainly don’t see that sort of thing being done these days, well definitely not in Oz 🙂
Wonderful trip.
And the amazing thing is that by the nineteenth century they were mainly in ruins and have been restored in the last 50 years. Hope this link works (it has Russian characters): https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/5f/%D0%A0%D0%B8%D1%85%D0%B0%D1%80%D0%B4-%D0%9A%D0%B0%D1%80%D0%BB_%D0%9A%D0%B0%D1%80%D0%BB%D0%BE%D0%B2%D0%B8%D1%87_%D0%97%D0%BE%D0%BC%D0%BC%D0%B5%D1%80_-_%D0%A1%D0%B0%D0%BC%D0%B0%D1%80%D0%BA%D0%B0%D0%BD%D0%B4%2C_%D0%A3%D0%B7%D0%B1%D0%B5%D0%BA%D0%B8%D1%81%D1%82%D0%B0%D0%BD.jpg
