Aladzha Monastery: water from the spring

“The monastery caves were hewn into a 25m high vertical karst cliff near the upper edge of the Franga plateau on several levels. The complex includes two small nearby catacombs.

"Dedicated to the Holy Trinity, it was an active hesychast monastic community of the Second Bulgarian Empire since the 12th century and perhaps survived until the early 18th century. Nearby, remains of a 5th-century cave monastery have been found.

"A cave monastery may have existed not far from the modern monastery Aladzha, near Varna. Its early dating to the fourth century is secured by fragments of glassware, but coins of Justinian indicate that the complex may have still been in use during the 500s.

"As late as the early 20th century, the forested hills surrounding the monastery and known as Hachuka (Mount of the Cross) or Latin, were regarded by locals as sacred and inhabited by a mythical, chthonic daemon treasure keeper, Imri Pop or Rim-Papa.”

6th April 2018 Aladzha Monastery in Golden Sands National Park. A rock monastery inhabited during the 5th century BC and used by monks until the 18th century. Stairs and walkways lead to amazing caves carved up to 40m above ground. You can see the monks sleeping area, kitchen, a church and catacombs. Well worth a visit....
