A truly divine place!
On the New Athos Mountain, the view around is dizzyingly stunning!😍
Everyone must be there!
Miracles are happening to your life here in the Temple!💯
Thank God!🙏
A beautiful temple. It requires restoration. There are a lot of people coming. The impressions are twofold. It seems beautiful, but there is no one to put their hands on. The attraction must be visited in order to make up your mind.
It's beautiful, but there's no smell of faith here. The girl didn't have enough cash to buy a candle. It turned out to be 50 instead of 100p. In response to a question about the possibility of buying for 50, the girl was simply turned away. 100 meters from the temple candles by the way for 10p.
The Temple is of stunning beauty. Thank God that it has now begun to be restored. The condition is now very neglected, most of the frescoes are peeling, they need to be saved. And another wish, do not put air conditioning units on the facade, do not spoil the historical beauty! Put them on the roof, there are oven windows, you can disguise them behind bars
It's a beautiful place. Peace and tranquility. I recommend you to visit.

The Church of the Ascension of the Lord is the gate temple of the New Athos Monastery in the name of the Holy Apostle Simon the Canaanite.
It became the first temple of the monastery complex.
The church was consecrated on August 11, 1894.
The Russian Orthodox Church does NOT bless Orthodox pilgrims to participate in the sacraments on the territory of the monastery, to buy candles, souvenirs, and make donations.
The New Athos monastery ended up in the hands of persons who had dissolved their unity with the Orthodox Church.
Back in 2011, hieromonks Yerofey and Andrey were banned from the sacred ministry for their schismatic activities.
It is a very holy place, and how the monks sing prayers in the Abkhazian language!!! When I was in New Athos in 2013, services were only on weekends. And it would be good to choose a time when tourists do not come by bus. I would love to go there again! People are very kind there!
I think it's worth once in a lifetime to feel the greatness of our ancestors, who built such places of worship, besides a prayed-for, clean, holy place without pathos...
Beautiful architecture, the solitude of this place. The temple is part of the New Athos Monastery, and also requires restoration.

The temple is cool, but there are almost no ministers left. Although the influx of tourists is huge in summer, everyone earns, but not the temple. And his servants have no money for maintenance and maintenance and repairs.
