The main dominant of New Athos is of course a man’s monastery. Legend has it that a long time ago monks sailed the sea and looked for a place similar to the Greek Athos. Here they found him. And here they built their own monastery.
Основная доминанта Нового Афона конечно мужской монастырь. Легенда гласит, что давным давно монахи плыли по морю и искали место, похожее на греческий Афон. Здесь они его и нашли. И здесь построили свой монастырь.
На первых двух снимках вы видите, что добраться до монастыря не очень просто. Он стоит далеко и высоко. Тогда мы были моложе и расстояния не значили ничего. В первый же день решили просто пройтись по городу и посетить его основную достопримечательность. Мы не поломники, мы просто туристы. Нас интересует всё вокруг. А всего было действительно много. Это озеро в центре городского парка образовано на русле реки Псырдзха. Монахи устроили плотину, водопад, поставили водяную турбину, разбили парк с системой каналов и озёр. Это одно из них. В центре находится небольшой ресторан. Мы любили заходить туда на чашку кофе.
In the first two pictures you see that getting to the monastery is not very easy. He stands far and high. Then we were younger and distance meant nothing. On the first day, we decided to just walk around the city and visit its main attraction. We are not pilgrims, we are just tourists. We are interested in everything around. But there were really a lot. This lake in the center of the city park is formed on the bed of the Psyrdzha River. The monks built a dam, a waterfall, put a water turbine, set up a park with a system of canals and lakes. This is one of them. In the center there is a small restaurant. We loved going in for a cup of coffee.
После строгой северной природы нам было здесь всё интересно. Особенно радовали пальмы и различные ароматные цветы. Запахи здесь кружили голову.
After the strict northern nature, everything was interesting to us here. Palm trees and various fragrant flowers were especially pleased. My head was spinning with smells.
Мы не задерживались долго. Хотелось побольше всего успеть увидеть в этот первый день.
We did not stay long. I wanted to see most of all on this first day.
До монастыря мы всё же дошли. Но вначале обошли вокруг него. Не хотелось сразу погружаться в гущу народа.
We nevertheless reached the monastery. But at first they went around him. I did not want to immediately plunge into the thick of the people.
Этот монастырь является действующим. В то же время он работает и как светское учреждение. Очень правильное сочетание на мой взгляд. Здесь каждый может найти что-то для своей души.
This monastery is an active temple. At the same time, he works as a secular institution. A very correct combination in my opinion. Here everyone can find something for their soul.
Нам пора выходить, чтобы двигаться дальше. По сути, мы видели не больше десятой части всего, что здесь есть интересного. А к монастырю мы как-нибудь вернёмся в ночное время. Да, мы гуляли по городу ночью и купались в море ногишом по лунной дорожке. Но это всё впереди.
We have to go out to move on. In fact, we saw no more than a tenth of everything that is interesting here. And we will somehow return to the monastery at night. Yes, we walked around the city at night and bathed in the sea naked along the lunar path. But this is all ahead.

кабы оттуда... не, из пыльных архивов. Подумалось, а что им пылиться, когда ещё свежих привезу. Уже два года там не были. А место интересное)

Правильная думка. Нечего пылиться просто так. Архивы нужно вскрывать.

Вот она проблема. Большой объём, плюс сохранность. Раньше столько на пленке не шлепали фоток.
