This well known monastery is a real beauty. The exterior is especially awesome when viewed from the courtyard, and my jaw dropped a good few inches when I walked into the church. Still I had a hard time taking good photos, I think due to the lack of decay in most of the building.

I quite like #15.

This is a beautiful place. The lack of water damage, theft and vandalism would seem to be a good thing. But I know what you mean; I recently had access to a historical house that was in perfect shape. Dull!

These are fantastic. Thanks for sharing. Any chance you checked the date on the fire extinguisher in 21?

You guys in Europe are so lucky. Here in the states, that place would have been bulldozed and a new Wal-Mart put up...

Amazing place and great shots! Good job!

I consider this amount of symmetry to be boarder line pornographic.

5 stars to the entire set. Envious of your craftsmanship and experience here.

This place looks amazing. Excellent set. So nice to see a location that isn't damaged and tagged up with a bunch of dumb shit. Europe has some of the best things it seems.

I don't know, there is an eerily similar monastery near me that has been closed 7 years and is still in great shape. No signs of a Walmart in the future.

Gorgeous! Really loved shots 15- 17, but they are all really outstanding. I think you captured the true sense of the place, even though it was difficult with minimal decay from the elements.

This place is absolutely amazing! The architecture is so fantastically beautiful I wish I could find a place that this around these parts. Photos really capture the space too.
