Today, you are in for an exciting journey to the heart of the Russian North — to Kirillov and the village of Ferapontovo (130 km)!

The Ferapontov Monastery is not just a place; it is a true temple of history and culture. Founded in 1398 by Saint Ferapont, it served as a cultural and religious center of the Belozersk region for four centuries. The monastery's main church — the Cathedral of the Nativity of the Virgin — is renowned for its unique frescoes created by the outstanding icon painter Dionysius, a true master of his time. His works, preserved to this day, represent the last "swan song" of the artist's talent, remaining in their original form. Each detail of the frescoes is imbued with the spirit of the era, and seeing them will undoubtedly allow you to feel the breath of centuries.
