Trabzon 4841.jpg

This monastery, "Girls monastery" (I don't know if this refers to nuns, or to tome other feature) dates back to 1349-1390 and is also known as the Panaghia or Theoskepastos monastery. It houses some fresco's that I show, but you will see they are badly ruined.

I took a couple of shots of the city from the walls surrounding the monastery or from the guest quarters.
