We were there on an excursion. The temple itself is simple and very well maintained. But before visiting, it is recommended to visit a shop with the attributes of a Christian church. Tourists, be vigilant, impose everything they have and for a lot of money.

The temple is really very ascetic, there is not even a cross. Although it is quite difficult to call even a temple, it feels like all the icons are taken from another "shrine" nearby - from an icon shop. Inside, they are giving a lecture on the topic "which icon do you need to buy from us", the prices for the icon are inadequate, the smallest 3 * 4 costs 25€. It is simply impossible to remain without the attention of the women serving there and without an advertising campaign.
At the same time, on the way to the "temple", the guide said that it was not good to go there without buying an icon, and the temple should be helped. There you will also hear the catchy "don't bring money to the temple, God doesn't need it"
Draw your own conclusions.

It's interesting, but difficult to get there, a beautiful place, a wonderful view from the mountain, a small, cozy church, where they speak Russian.
