      Изящная скромность и величие одновременно. Когда ступаешь в эти стены, время перестаёт существовать, оставляя лишь благоговение перед историей. Здесь каждое резное украшение будто рассказывает свою древнюю легенду. Тишина наполнена звуками прошедших веков, и кажется, что ты стоишь на границе чего-то вечного. Это место заставляет остановиться и вдуматься, почувствовать себя частью чего-то большего.

      The stone walls of this ancient place have a certain charm, yet the overall experience left me a bit unsettled. The entrance felt more intimidating than welcoming, and though the craftsmanship is evident, I couldn't shake the eerie feeling. Maybe the place holds more for those who connect deeply with such history, but for me, it lacked warmth and accessibility.

      Храм окружен стеной, сложенной из булыжника. Вход осуществляется через ворота с колокольней наверху. Сама церковь имеет зал, она построена хорошо и ровно, с фронтонами, украшенными резьбой. Вход с юга.
