Lonely Planet review for Vydubytsky Monastery

Few churches appear more frozen in time than those of the Vydubytsky Monastery, nestled into the hill’s dense foliage beneath the botanical gardens. The monastery, which is thought to be at least as old as Kyiv, is looking in fine fettle today after centuries of catastrophes followed by years of Soviet neglect. The monastery is home to a small community of monks who, quite frankly, have chosen a much more monk-friendly place to practise their faith.
