Iconic Monastery

A journey to the Spanish Pyrenees - Zaragoza (Region) The monastery is situated in a beautiful green area, with stunning exterior architecture. However, the interior is truly mesmerizing, filled with the mysterious aura of Alba. To our surprise, while we were taking photos outside, an elderly monk who still resides there opened the door for us. He shared with us the wonders and experiences he had encountered in many countries, accompanied by photos from various places throughout his life. This was one of the most touching experiences of my life. Although I am not religious, I deeply appreciate the architecture and history of such places, making it a must-visit for me.
