The newly built monastery was tucked between huge private mansions on Michurin Street. To my shame, I did not know that the monastery was built near the famous caves that have existed for a millennium. Since 2006, new buildings of the monastery have been built around them. The design is controversial, but impressive. There are practically no outsiders and "tourists" - women in headscarves, men, if not in a cassock, then it is definitely clear from the face that they are monks. There are many artifacts, bones, inscriptions, skulls in the caves.→
