A Peaceful Morning at Visoki Dečani Monastery, Kosovo

#postandearn
During my recent trip to Kosovo, I visited the Visoki Dečani Monastery, and it was one of the most peaceful moments of my journey. Located near Dečani, this 14th-century Serbian Orthodox monastery is surrounded by green mountains and the gentle sound of the nearby river, making it feel like a hidden sanctuary.
The monastery is famous for its UNESCO World Heritage status and its beautiful medieval frescoes that cover the walls inside, showing over 1,000 biblical scenes. It felt like walking inside a living museum, and the calm atmosphere made it easy to slow down and appreciate the details.
Travel Tips:
Dress modestly when visiting; long pants or skirts and covered shoulders are required.
Photography is limited inside, so take your time to absorb the art with your eyes.
Arrive in the morning for soft light and a quieter experience.
There is no entrance fee, but donations are welcome to support the monastery’s upkeep.
If you are visiting Kosovo, I highly recommend including Visoki Dečani Monastery in your plan. It offers a beautiful mix of history, spirituality, and nature, perfect for travelers looking to experience something truly meaningful.
