Bulgaria - Rock-hewn Churches of Ivanovo
antoniolouro > albums > BULGARIA - Sept.2008
Album Info:
The caves in the region had been inhabited by monks from the 1220s, when it was founded by the future Patriarch of Bulgaria Joachim, to the 17th century, where they hewed cells, churches and chapels out of solid rock. At the peak of the monastery complex, the number of churches was about 40, while the other premises were around 300, most of which are not preserved today
