Holy Trinity Monastery

Dating from 1537, this impressive monastery occupies a sublimely peaceful nook tucked into the hills, 1km north of the town. Ottoman-style buildings hung with flowerboxes form a backdrop to a solid church with a sumptuously painted interior and gilded iconostasis. Behind the church, a small waterfall tumbles into a pond.
