Bulgaria, The Entrance to the Rozhen Monastery
The Rozhen Monastery of the Nativity of the Mother of God is the biggest monastery in the Rodopi Mountains in southwestern Bulgaria, nestled in the Melnik Sandstone Pyramids. It is one of the few medieval Bulgarian monasteries well preserved until today.
The monastery church was built before the 15th century and painted in 1597; some of those frescoes are preserved.
