Not far from Kislovodsk, on the top of Dubrovka mountain near the village from the village of Yasnaya Polyana, the snow-white St. George Convent is picturesquely located. The view of both the monastery itself from the federal highway Minvody-Kislovodsk is wonderful - it seems to soar in the sky, and from the monastery to the surroundings - the city and mountains are at a glance, and Mount Beshtau in the morning in a haze of fog generally looks mysterious, in clear weather it is clearly visible double-headed Elbrus.
