New Athos: Ruins of Anakopia - visual history (25 photos)

in Wednesday Walk3 years ago (edited)

Our walk around New Athos began long before this Wednesday.
In the beginning, we just stopped in this wonderful town and walked to the city park with palm trees and swans in the ponds.

We could not help but visit the New Athos Monastery and admire its beauty and grandeur. By the way, the first photo today is a view of it from the top of Anakopia Mountain.

Наша прогулка по Новому Афону началась задолго до этой среды.
Вначале мы просто заехали в этот чудесный городок и прошлись до городского парка с пальмами и лебедями в прудах.

Мы не могли не посетить Новоафонский монастырь и не полюбоваться его красотой и величием. Кстати, первое фото сегодня, это вид на него с вершины Анакопийской горы.

Further, our path lay deep in this very mountain, into the famous New Athos caves.
It was long walk
We finished it only from the third run

Далее, наш путь лежал в глубину этой самый горы, в знаменитые Новоафонские пещеры.
Это была длительная прогулка
Мы закончили её только с третьего захода

Since we climbed into the belly of the mountain, we had to conquer its top and [we began our ascent](https://hive.blog/hive-194913/@bambuka/featured-new-athos-hike-to-anakopia- visual-history-22-photos)

Раз уж мы залезли в живот гору, то надо было покорить и её вершину и мы начали наше восхождение

Дорога оказалась не близкой, мы делали привалы и снова поднимались в гору.

Finally we climbed a small plateau at the top of the mountain.. We must examine him today.

Наконец мы поднялись на маленькое плато на вершине горы.. Сегодня мы должны его обследовать.

The top offers interesting views of the mountains and the sea. But while we were rising, the sun also continued its way up the sky. After the rain, there was a lot of moisture and everything together formed a kind of haze, behind which small details and the horizon are hidden. To be on the safe side, I processed these pictures in monochrome.

Сверху открываются интересные виды на горы и море. Но пока мы поднимались, солнце тоже продолжало путь наверх небосклона. После дождя было много влаги и всё вместе образовало некое марево или дымку, за которой скрываются мелкие детали и горизонт. На всякий случай я обработал эти снимки в монохроме.

I took all these pictures while standing on the observation deck of the fortress tower. For some reason, I did not shoot the site itself. At that time, I did not upload my photos anywhere and did not expect a report. I was just filming something as a keepsake. These are not thoughtful photographs that can be attributed to a particular genre. This is just amateur photography for myself.

Все эти снимки я сделал стоя на смотровой площадке башни крепости. Почему-то я не снимал саму площадку. В то время я никуда не выкладывал свои фото и не предполагал репортажа. Просто снимал что-то на память. Это не продуманные фотографии , которые можно отнести к какому-то жанру. Это просто любительская съёмка для себя.

We're going down. I didn't have a flash either ... nor did I have a tripod ...

Мы спускаемся вниз. Вспышки у меня тоже не было...как и треноги...

Unfortunately, this is all that remains of the fortress and the temple inside it. I will show you the remains of the temple later. These stones have seen a lot in their lifetime. They experienced the flourishing of the kingdom, robberies, fires and complete decline to oblivion. I think that the vandals have put their hand here. And besides, something was destroyed on purpose, as, for example, it was done during the war in Syria. A modern war that has not ended even now. There are forces in the world that are not comfortable with the true history of mankind. Manuscripts, artifacts and entire cities are being destroyed. But let's not talk about sad things.

К сожалению, это всё, что осталось от крепости и храма внутри неё. Останки храма я покажу позже. Эти камни многое повидали на своём веку. Они познали расцвет царства, грабежи, пожары и полный упадок вплоть до забвения. Я думаю, что и вандалы приложили сюда свою руку. И кроме того, что-то уничтожалось намерено, как, например, это делалось во время войны в Сирии. Современной войны, которая не закончилась и сейчас. Есть в мире силы, которым не удобна подлинная история человечества. Уничтожаются рукописи, артефакты и целые города. Но не будем о грустном.

We’ll head downstairs soon and visit that round little restaurant in the middle of the pond. By the way, there, we drowned one of our smartphones ... But and it doesn't matter, life goes on.

Скоро мы отправимся вниз и посетим пот тот круглый ресторанчик посередине пруда. Кстати там, мы утопили один из наших смартфонов... Но и это не беда, жизнь продолжается.

Visiting both under in the caves and on top of the mountain
Such beautiful views

Sorry short comment this week I have an injured hand and trying to rest it

Thanks for joining Wednesday Walk :), I truly enjoy exploring the world virtually each Wednesday seeing walks from all around the globe and feeling I am there and experiencing it all myself, such as I did in your post just now :)

Nice to see you @tattoodjay anyway. Hope your arm gets better quickly. Today I posted a second post on your hive. He just continues and completes the first yesterday, and waiting until next Wednesday is a bad option. I am doing a series of post about visiting New Athos. And these two posts refer to the same place.
Take care of your hand, it needs more rest and warming rubbing. Do not reply to my comment or do it very briefly. Treat your hand, and I wish you overall health.

Cheers and !BEER

Hey @tattoodjay, here is a little bit of BEER from @bambuka for you. Enjoy it!

Do you want to win SOME BEER together with your friends and draw the BEERKING.

The observatory has a classic look. Even though it's just ruined ruins, it still looks pretty clean. The panoramic view can't be faulted. How about camping overnight here?😂

In fact, I would not want anything to be restored here. You just need to carefully save everything as it is.
When you are below and look at the top of the mountain, you see a yellow light. Perhaps there is a security guard or just someone looking after the place. I would love to spend the night there, it's a great idea))

Cheers and !BEER

Considering that you said that these are the shots of an amateur photographer who wasn't considering anything but personal keepsakes, you still managed to take some brilliant shots!

Glad to see you and thank you for your kind words!

Какая там высота над уровнем моря? думаю строить там было совсем непросто...

про высоту не скажу, не так, чтобы очень, но сверху кажется и высоко...))
Я думаю, что там строили прямо из камня, который там же кололи и тесали. Иначе не натаскаешься.
