This elegant Orthodox monastery (Манастир Матка/Manastir Matka) is occupied by nuns famous for their textile workshop: liturgical vestments for the clergy of the Macedonian Orthodox Church, embroidered icons, but also handbags with folk or modern designs. Founded around 1337, the complex is dedicated to the dormition of the Mother of God. It consists of a large, well-kept garden and buildings from different periods, including a beautiful little church dating from 1497. The church contains remarkable frescoes from the 15th and 16th centuries.

Édifice magnifique dans un cadre fantastique avec le canyon et sa végétation. Restaurant à proximité super agréable avant d'entamer les divers chemins de randonnée possibles.
