    Default Razboishki monastery, Bulgaria

    Hello,

    I want to share with you my day trip to the monastery of Razboishte.
    Small village near Sofia.
    The monastery is about 15-16 centuries old . It was totally destroyed several times during all kind of wars over this land. Last build was made early in 18th century BC.
    Monks hides and prays in caves up in the rocks, but after very big earthquake in 1976, caves was demolished.

    In these days, monastery is accessible only by lifted 4wd or by walk
