Podmine Convent founded by the Kronojevic family🇲🇪

#JanuaryTravelSupportEvent #OverseasTravel #Montenegro **Podmaine Monastery**, built in the 15th century by the Krnojević family, is a Serbian Orthodox sanctuary located on a hill north of Budva. The pink and ochre stone building is a mix of Byzantine and Ottoman influences, and although it was partially damaged by the 1979 earthquake, the 14th-century frescoes contrast with the modern murals added in 2002. Major attractions😁 Shocking frescoes: Communist officers (red star emblems) being dragged to hell and giant fish devouring humans. Peaceful gardens: flowerbeds tended by monks and terraces with sunset views. Historical significance: The place where Petar II Petrović Negori wrote The Crown of the Mountains. Visiting tips☺️ Time zone: Visit after 3pm to avoid Sunday morning mass (crowded). Attire: Clothing below the knees and shoulder covers are recommended (no flash for interior photos). Environment: Surrounded by apartment complexes, but the nearby stone bridge and pine forest walking trails are recommended. Some travelers say, "The contrast with the modern city is unique" and "I was surprised by the intensity of the frescoes." Free admission (07:00~18:00), and it is easily accessible as it is a 30-minute walk from downtown Budva. It is an ideal place to enjoy history and art at the same time!! #FebruaryTravelSupportEvent #Budva #2024WishEvent
