An atmospheric and salty place in fraternal Abkhazia.
It is quite wise that "Dear to the monastery
[Since May 15, 2011, the monastery has actually been a department of the non-canonical "Holy Metropolis of Abkhazia"] very heavy.
600 meters uphill, off-road."

I give 5 stars only because of the nature and beauty that once was. Unfortunately, the monastery is not well maintained, there has been no restoration inside the cathedral since the war

A sincere place, beautiful appearance, unusual interior decoration, although it may require restoration. The territory of the monastery is small and well maintained. It's nice to be there. The temple is impressive and fills with warmth.

It's a beautiful place. The territory is large and beautiful. But I was very sorry for the skinny screaming kitten on the territory of the monastery. Please, who will visit, take him a piece of food or a bag of food, it's a pity for the baby. It is strange that none of the servants feed him, he is very thin and hungry.

A very beautiful and majestic temple, where the service is still held, we were lucky and we got to it. Candles were bought at the entrance to the arch there is a church store, they do not sell in the temple itself.

A solemn holy place. Well, everything is a little different from in Russia, but I liked it. We put candles, prayed, bought an icon in the car and souvenirs for friends!

A lot of tourists come every day. There is only a toilet with two booths nearby, there is a huge queue there. It is necessary to consider the facilities for tourists

We were passing through there, very interesting interior. Everything is thought out to the smallest detail in terms of the fact that long skirts are tied at the entrance and handkerchiefs are put on the head. It is very convenient, you do not need to look for what to get where and how to get through.

It's a pretty boring place, but the murals are beautiful. I'm not a big fan of temples, but you can visit them once as a tourist.

I recommend you to visit!
The beautiful territory of the monastery, the opportunity to put candles, pray.
The presence of a large number of tourists does not interfere.

Nicely
Painting is interesting
The abbots do not obey the Moscow Patriarchate or the Georgian Patriarchate, but only themselves in one word, schismatics
The money that they collect could not only be stuffed into their pockets, but would be spent on restoring icons and frescoes
It's a pity such a good place

The atmosphere in the monastery is very good, but everything is so neglected there that I would like to wish them to restore this place as soon as possible.

A majestic temple, a sacred place.
The temple requires serious restoration (restoration work is underway in some places), but this does not detract from its beauty in any way. The frescoes and mosaics are simply amazing.
There are fantastic views from the observation deck.

A very beautiful place, the view of the sea and mountains is stunning, the courtyard and the village of New Athos itself is probably the most civilized place in terms of infrastructure for tourists, a cool embankment and promedam, many decent cafes, mobile communication offices, Sberbank, a summer cinema, I liked it much more than Gagra and Sukhum

Visited in October 24. You can only see sabor, the rest is not for visiting. Sabor itself is grandiose. But the state he is in leaves a very sad impression. It shouldn't be like this. Abkhazians are your heritage, how can you treat such beauty like that? Sorry.

A very beautiful ancient temple. Magnificent icons. There was a service during the visit. They sang beautifully in the choir. There is an icon on the wall: a donkey, wherever you go. He's watching you.😃

The most beautiful place of the soul. You need to come here without excursions, groups and guides to have time to enjoy these views. Unfortunately, I couldn't get into the temple itself, because it was a sanitary day, but I'm sure everything is great there and inside. A place that inspires and really feels incredible spiritual lightness after visiting

I am not a monastery walker, but in general I have a positive impression, the market nearby does not spoil the view much. It is beautifully visible inside that it has not been restored for a long time, but it is kept clean.

The monastery was impressive. Very neat. Ancient icons...However, there are a lot of tourists. At the entrance, aprons are given to both women and men whose knees are not covered. You can buy and put candles, for which prices start from 20 rubles. There is a church shop.

This is a very beautiful place, fascinating, the most important thing is peace. You go there and you change your outlook on life. Well, in principle, everything else is also so great. Everything is fine. You can put a candle on a little problem with the Internet, But if someone has tariffs, then I think there will be no problems.

This is the New Athos Monastery! Despite the appearance of the buildings, the place is magnificent, grandiose! What magnificent murals in the temple! The whole flow of tourists, the crowd clamoring to the gates, instantly subsides in the temple. The grandeur of the place is simply overwhelming.

The internal state of the monastery is very sad, unfortunately it is not being put in order, it is not being restored. At the entrance, the men who handle the human flows do not seem to realize where they are. They are quite rude and brusque.

The place is wonderful. What Orthodox Christians from the ROC need to know: this is not the ROC. Before the Abkhazian-Georgian war, the church belonged to the Georgian Orthodox, after that it separated and is now independent.

Climbing uphill, in the heat, of course, is hard. But it's worth it. You look at the paintings of the temple, at this beauty, and you want to linger, "absorb" it into yourself. The place is salted. And the views from the hill are gorgeous.
