We spent our vacation in Bulgaria sightseeing.There are many Places to go in Bulgaria,especially monasteries with interesting history.One of them is the Chekotinski monastery.We spent 2 days there as there are may be 25-26 rooms for guests.It is believed that the monastery was built in the end of the 12th c. or the first half of the 13th c. Its existence is connected with the so-called Bozhenski Urvich fortress that was situated 4km away from it.The church has the typical architecture of Christian churches of the 12-13th c., and represents a one-nave basilica with a narthex, apse and a cylindrical entrance.The surrounding nature is very picturesque.
