Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Vysoko-Petrovsky Monastery, Petrovka St., 28/2, Moscow 127051 Russia
We will spend a nice evening at the 15th-century Russian Orthodox Christian Monastery. This place is a locals-Best-Kept-Secret and a Hidden Gem.
We will explore the Monastery and then enjoy its local food, cooked exactly the same style as for resident monks. Absolutely delicious!
First, we meet at central Moscow and will have a short walk to the monastery,
Will be met there by Vladimir (monastery monk guide), who will give us a tour around the monastery territory (I will translate). We will visit the most interesting places there:
– Early 16th-century Cathedral, built by a famous Italian architect
– 17th-century Church, dedicated to the most respected Russian Saint (we will this church after it’s closed for the public, so we will have the whole temple for us only)
– 40 meters-tall Bell Tower – we will visit the tallest tier of the monastery bell tower, built back to 17th-century and will enjoy the bells ringing and amazing views of Moscow (you can see the Kremlin walls from there!)
– Dinner at the Monastery Refectory. We will have our food at the place, where monks have their meals. It will be a lot of food and you can choose a dinner with fish or a vegetarian option.
The meal is cooked exactly the same way as it’s cooked for monks.
Yum Yum! During the dinner and we will be happy to answer your questions about the history of Moscow, the religion in Russia, its food.
