We will try to solve the riddles of number one attraction of Ukraine - KYIV-PECHERSK LAVRA, the second oldest Christian stronghold of Ukraine. We will try to penetrate the history of LAVRA CATACOMBS, which hold the imperishable relics of 122 monks. You will be introduced to the stunning results of medical experiments on these human remains. You will also learn what miraculous events happened here throughout centuries. In addition, we will visit 3 churches - ASSUMPTION CATHEDRAL, GATE CHURCH OF THE TRINITY & REFECTORY CHURCH and learn how to decipher the symbolism of their wall images.I will teach you how to read Ukrainian Orthodox architecture and to interpret it through the prism of color science. We will stand on LAVRA'S BEST OBSERVATION DECK, which offers a mind-boggling view of the Monastery architectural ensemble. You will see that there is a reason for every detail you come across in the Monastery grounds and that these details often go unnoticed. Entry ticket UAH120 or EUR3.6.
