The temple itself is impressive as always. It's a pity that tourists and the tourist business make this place not holy, but just a landmark, a beautiful building. But the energy is very strong. If you listen, if you keep quiet, if you take the phone out of your hands and try to hear yourself and the voice of the Lord. There are two convenience stores with candles, icons and you can pay with a card - very convenient. The road up to the monastery sets you up for spiritual thoughts, but souvenir shops attract you. Apparently this is a test for us. And of course the views 👍

An amazing place of strength and soul. The view of New Athos is very impressive. And the air is so clean. Just a master visit for everyone. A huge number of pilgrims and tourists! The temple will not leave anyone indifferent

The monastery is beautiful, both near and at a distance, elegant, well-groomed, such a cozy Cathedral with rich decoration. And what a magnificent observation deck, from the height of which the wooded mountains, the sea, and the sky open.

A beautiful, large cathedral. The murals on the walls and under the dome are very majestic. Candles smell like wax. There are benches throughout the temple, convenient for tired and unhealthy people.

A wonderful salted place, an atmosphere of solitude, to stand by the icons, listen to the inner voice, remember your family. See the surrounding nature, filled with an endless chorus of cicadas.

The funny thing is that in 2013, there were scaffolding (they said it was under reconstruction), and in 2022 and 2024 nothing has changed. The easiest way to say it is on reconstruction! And so, of course, a very beautiful monastery and nature around. I always visit it and go to the cemetery of war Heroes, I don't know, for some reason it's very attractive (in general, for me personally, any military topic is interesting!) I recommend it! P. S. I love history.

A beautiful temple, in a wonderful location with stunning views. Of course it's worth a visit. You can walk, for whom it is difficult to climb the hill, you can drive. You can go down the road (unpaved and quite steep, but go directly to the waterfall practically. You can go back along the hiking trail. But you definitely need to visit.

At the entrance, they give out shawls and skirts to cover up. The visit is free of charge.

Сам монастырь Симона - Кананита, равно и как сам Собор очень мироощущаем, иными словами место намоленное и спокойное.
Слегка потрёпан временем фасад, но людям , приходящим туда совсем нужно не это.
Очень порадовало, наконец-то полученное соответствие со святым писанием, о том, что в храме не должно быть никакой торговли!
Заполнить записочку, купить свечи, и пр. можно при входе на территорию монастыря, а в самом Соборе уже непосредственно освятить или поставить...Вообщем молодцы.
Церковным людям там будет хорошо.

A very beautiful temple with a pleasant light energy. Yes, it is dilapidated in places and some of the visits are in an abandoned state, but at the same time, coming out of it, I feel full. In addition, the Cathedral stands on a hill, and from the observation decks there is a beautiful view in different directions.

It 's a painful paragraph to go to him . There is no road at all, only pits. There are a lot of visitors coming. The temple itself is in a decadent state. Candles can only be placed in three places. The view of the sea from there is beautiful.

I understand such a monastery is a church, all day long some tourists arrive on 20 buses a day. But nothing has been repaired for decades. At least something needs to be done, because donations are coming in. Everything is so ruined in Abkhazia, nothing is being done.

Очень красивый собор. И фрески бесподобны. Внутри очень понравилось. Но на манер католических церквей стоят сидения внутри. Потом прочитала в неофициальных источниках про раскол и стало все понятно. Посещала с туристическими целями, место очень понравилось.

It is very noticeable that the road and the temple itself have been in need of repair for a long time.. but like all attractions in Abkhazia, it is primarily a means to gain benefits.. no need to be greedy ! Make repairs and the road to the temple..
