for lunch (pay your own way). 

Please Register by Sunday, February 15, so we have a count for the restaurant. Watch here for Registration link.

The monastery is active so a respectful presence is required of visitors. There is a strictly-enforced modest dress code for visitors.  

Women are kindly asked to wear long-sleeved, loose-fitting shirts that fully cover the chest up to the neck; long skirts (or dresses) without deep slits; scarves that cover the head and wrap under the chin and around the neck, so that the neck is also covered. Please refrain from wearing lipstick when venerating icons and receiving Holy Communion. Please remove any visible face or body piercing jewelry.

Men are kindly asked to wear long pants and long-sleeved shirts. Please, no baseball caps or clothing with inappropriate words or images. Inside, especially in church, men are asked to keep their heads uncovered. Please remove any visible face or body piercing jewelry.

For both men and women, socks (at least ankle high) with shoes or sandals are to be worn at all times. Please do not wear sheer stockings. Please wear practical and comfortable flat shoes while at the monastery since it is desert terrain and the pathways are of rough flagstone. Please do not wear high heels, platform shoes, or open-toed sandals.

Guests are also asked to refrain from wearing perfumes, colognes, scented lotions, etc., for the sake of those who have strong chemical sensitivities and get very ill from these types of scents.

The photography policy states to ask before taking photographs of any of the monks or guests. Photographs and videos are not allowed during the services without a blessing from the abbot. Apart from these restrictions, photographs and videos may be taken freely.

1,138 Google reviews rate the monastery visit as a 4.9 out of 5 and 177 Tripadvisor reviews a 4.7 out of 5! A pretty solid endorsement!
