The monastery was surrounded by ancient trees, huge granite boulders, moss, and ferns. The vegetation sets the tone with its damp and quiet air. |
Some of the larges boulders had been built right into the monastery. |
The monks rooms were each tiny... short doors, and just enough space for a small person to lie down. |
Although a bit small and cold, the light coming in was filtered and peaceful. I could see how this place could be a place of quiet contemplation. |
This gives you an idea of how small the rooms were! |
