Monastery of Ljubostinja

Reviewed By miladin_jovan - Belgrade, Serbia

One of the most beautiful churches with very nice facade decorations, but with damaged inside paintings. Once they had great red wine from their own vineyard but not anymore.

Mileseva

Reviewed By AlbertSalichs - Manresa, Spain

Mileseva is an orthodox monastery located in the western part of Serbia. It was built in the 13th Century and it is one of the typical walled monasteries to defend from ottomans. Really, the main church is wonderful and the views of the church and the surrounding mountains is fantastic. Also, the river, which flows close to the wall. Inside the church there are some well preserved frescos and around it, you can see some buildings of the complex, where religious people live, eat, sleep or work. In the surroundings of this religious complex, there is the remains of a Middle Ages fortress, which is located on top f a mountain. We did not know how arrive there, so we only saw this fortress from the road.

Manastir Crna Reka

Reviewed By IgorMarkovic - Smederevo, Serbia

It is not until the last decade that the Crna reka Monastery (transl. The Black River Monastery) became a popular religious and tourist destination. Situated near the village of Ribariće in south-west Serbia, this 13th century monastery is considered to be one of the most unusual due to its authentic position adn architectural style, as well as the unveiled history of its existence. A narrow road leading to the monastery from the village of Ribariće is the only possible way for getting to this hidden gem. Its wonderfully preserved interiors will simply leave you speechless. Isolation from civilazation, ascetic way of life of monks and complex history of the region have given an additional value to the monastery, which you will see it for yourself once you get there. If you're in the region of Novi Pazar, make sure to visit this amazing monastery!

Stari Ras and Sopocani

Reviewed By black_jack - Belgrade, Serbia

As you can read about Sopocani, this place is work of art and posses really good preserved frescoes. You can also imagine fortress around monastery which brings you back to medieval period. We were visiting during "covid19 crisis" so it was really quiet and peaceful. They also built in front of monastery place to refresh, with few tables and chairs, water and tea, where you can sit and rest for a bit. Definitly worth visiting
