Discover the biggest spiritual and cultural center in Bulgaria for hundreds of years, part of the UNESCO World Heritage list and a touch of the Balkan medieval history - Rila Monastery gives you the impression of a fortress.
However, a step through the archway produces a wonderful surprise. With its 1200 scenes of decorative paintings and a multitude of figural images, the open arcade is a genuine art gallery. At the center, the church itself, with colorful frescoes in the shelter of the porch is the focus of attention. The intricate carvings of the gilt iconostasis, the church's plates, and the murals will amaze and captivate you. Rila Monastery is just in the heart of Rila Mountain, just 130 km away from Sofia.
