Monastery in the Mountains

The Monastary Commands A Coastal View

Towers Provide Stations of the Cross

We pile out of the bus to take a closer look at these curious stations of the cross.
The monks climb the mountains to stop for prayers at each of these stations until
they reach their destination, which is the cross at the top.
