Опис

The Rila monastery – the most impressive monument from the Bulgarian National Revival, lies in Rila Mountain, at 1,147 meters above sea level. It is situated 120 km away from Sofia to the south, and is no doubt the most popular tourist site among all monasteries in Bulgaria equally for its size, natural surroundings, architecture, wall paintings and ancient history.
It was founded in the 10th century by the Bulgarian monk St. Ivan of Rila and was rebuilt in the 13th -14th century. From that time are the famous Hrelyo tower (1334), the bishop's throne, richly carved doors and some manuscripts, icon-paintings and church plates.
The entire complex is quite impressive for its size. The 4-floor residential part consists of no less than 300 monks’ cells, 4 chapels, an abbot’s room, a kitchen, a library and guestrooms for donors.
The monastery complex, regarded as one of the foremost masterpieces of Bulgarian National Revival architecture, was declared a national historical monument in 1976 and became a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1983.
