Description

Type: Single-day activity
Duration: 7 hours
* Have you noticed that ancient monasteries always stand in exceptionally beautiful places? The monastery of Alexander Svirsky, founded at the end of the 15th century, is an example of this. There are beautiful lakes and dense forests, silence and human labor, just like in the old days. We will walk around the monastery. It consists of two parts: Troitskaya and Preobrazhenskaya, and at the same time I will tell you about a lot. How Orthodoxy appeared in Karelia, which saints connected the monastery of Alexander Svirsky, Valaam and Optina deserts, how he lived in the past and how the monastery works today.
