About this experience
The architecture of the monastery followed the stylistic changes from the Byzantine heritage to date, fresco painting was at the time when the highest artistic achievement in Europe was created, and the monastic treasures were characterized by artistic and spiritual capital. Apart from everything listed, and perhaps it was supposed to be mentioned first, the Serbian monasteries were the main places of prayer. Today, monasteries are still prayer places, but they are an important part of Serbian heritage, and therefore of national identity, and an important part of our history. During the day you will get to know Serbian history, culture and the most beautiful parts of untouched surrounding nature.
