A medieval Orthodox Christian cave monastery complex with beautiful mosaics and frescoes in a reserved forest. Cool souvenirs and eating. We can organize a half-day trip for you if you choose so!
The peculiar name of this rock monastery comes from Persian/Arabic and means “colorful”. It’s one of the most popular things to see near Varna and for a reason. Built in the 13-14th centuries, the monastery gave shelter to hermit monks. Aladzha monastery has a few different floors and sometimes on a summer evening, you can even catch a great light show! After you’ve explored its main part, we recommend that you take the little path to the left of the entrance (next to the museum) and walk about 10 minutes on it. You’ll reach a necropolis to your right which is so, so gorgeous and not that popular.
