A beautiful place, blessed nature, cozy and fresh, the holy spirit is felt.. the river is really shallow, but below there is even a dam for washing..
By the way, parking is free below, there is no need to pay Asian collectors.. they illegally settled down and collect fees, and then go to Simon's grotto and smoke there and drink alcohol...
you have the right not to pay and no one can force you.. Good luck to all of you at the holy place!!
A very strong and beautiful place 🙏🏻 A small ascent along the course of the River of Souls (from Abkhaz). Great views even in winter. Historical buildings dating back to the 1950s are being restored. A spring, waterfalls, a trail, a river, beautiful trees, birds. The very story of the Saint's life inspires and touches. I managed to stay in the cave alone. Everything is iconic and symbolic there. A salted place,
A place of power. A place to return to! I recommend taking a guided tour. Next to the grotto there is a cafe near the mountain river, where the food is very tasty.
