Tchiprovski monastery #11

For Tchiprovski monastery I have only this picture to offer. We were not permitted to enter the monastery premisses because we had shorts and short sleeves on us. The temperature was hovering around 40C that day and we were not about to change our clothes. In addition to that, we were not permitted to make pictures of the monastery even from the outside, not to deplete its source of energy. It became apparent that the man was not well with his faculties and we left him alone to himself without bothering any further.
Maybe on another day, another time I would try again, but don't bet on it.
