Hello everyone!
I have been living on the bank of the Arda River in the Rhodope town of Kardzhali for 5 years now.
Just 150 meters from my home is this magnificent medieval monastery "St. John the Forerunner".
I get so excited every time when when I hear the bells ringing, they are many and the sound is like a melody.
They sound so solemn during the Christian festivals. Most times I go out on the balcony to hear the crystal sounds.
I guess you've heard that bell ringing heals and rejuvenates. That's probably why I look like this at 37. ;) Just kidding ha-ha :D
The history of this monastery is centuries old.
As soon as you enter the town there are signs telling you how to get there. Many tourists come here. Everything inside and out is so well maintained and as you can see in the pictures, there are renovations even now.
There's an indescribable energy about this place, and I'm lucky to live within feet of it.
Did you have any feeling when you heard the bells ringing? I would be glad if you would share with me.
Be blessed!
Be kind and do good!
Everything we send out into space comes back to us with greater force.
Thank you for stopping by!
Have a wonderful day!
