Holy monastery 🙏, incredible &so beautiful ❤️

An ancient Coptic monastery, dating to the fourth century, with breathtaking frescoes.

Amazing place figure out how beautiful is the christian art

As with the White monastery, the walls and the threelobed apse are what remains from this church. The apse has famous paintings, a beautiful blend of fifth and sixth century works put on a classical late antique architectural ensemble. In very good condition. Good to visit for any art lover. See also the wall paintings on the inside of the outer walls. Be, as a foreign visitor, aware of the fact that the local police will want to follow you whereever you go in this region. Most likely they arrange a police escort, though they say that the region is not dangerous for visitors. UK security advice colours this region green..

A very important and historical place. Great mural paintings that have been preserved and restored.

Blessed, quite place, historical Vivid colors on the walls since the fourth century, highly recommend to visit it.

One of the oldest in the world, with beautiful location among fields. Must be visited. Have an old church.
