I came across Gradac Monastery. I heard that in order to protect the Orthodox culture and resist the Turks, dozens of monasteries were built in the deep mountains in the south. After thousands of years of war, natural and man-made destruction, the Serbs have been repairing and rebuilding. There are nearly ten monasteries with a history of more than 700 to 800 years, and there are too many with a history of 100 to 200 years. This trip to Serbia specifically took time to explore the medieval monasteries in the southern mountains. On the way from Studenica Monastery to Novi Pazar, along Highway 22 in the southern mountains, passing by the Markov Konak (navigation available) restaurant, there was a roadside sign that flashed by. I seemed to feel that I saw a XIII century monastery, which was not planned. Turn right to Highway 233, go about 13 kilometers along the road, arrive at Gradac, turn left and walk up the mountain, and you will reach the monastery. There is basically no information on the Internet. I found out from Wikipedia when I returned to the hotel at night that the Gradac Monastery was built between 1277 and 1282, and has a history of nearly 1,000 years. It is a relic of Queen Helen. At that time, her son was King Stefan Dragutin. It was built on the plateau above the Gradcaka River. The monastery has been renovated and the murals in the room have been preserved. The colors have lost their former glory due to the erosion of time, but the murals can trace and prove the history of the monastery. I didn't find out whether it was included in the list of UNESCO World Cultural Heritage, but according to the method and results of the renovation, it is very likely to be a batch of protective renovations by UNESCO. There are pictures and truth. Sometimes it is difficult to obtain pictures. Like the Mogao Grottoes in Dunhuang, pictures cannot be put on the Internet. Edge ball may be a solution.
Sometimes I want to "be sincere and effective", and come here specifically for the medieval monastery. Even if you don't know it exists, God will favor you.
Traveling is often just the beginning. If you look up information and read books to pursue what you see and hear, the information you get will far exceed your expectations. Discovering clues is just the beginning of learning. Interested friends can arrange time to explore. Autumn may be a good season. The valley itself is a landscape.
