The monastery attracts with its majestic temples and well-groomed territory. Monastic cuisine products, as well as non-food items, can be purchased outside the territory.

The atmosphere is peaceful and calm. The church shop has a large selection of jewelry and other goods. I like to come here to pray, to communicate with God, to go to akathists. It is not always possible to observe all the traditions of the church, fasts, etc., but the main thing is that faith is in the soul, and God is in the heart.

We used to go more often: both for fun and on holidays, now, unfortunately, less often. But the monastery is very cool! All believers definitely need to visit!

The best monastery I've ever seen. There are temples and a restaurant on the territory, where there are always lean dishes, souvenir shops (you can buy both food and clothes), there are small stalls. The monastery leaves a very good impression. There is a large territory, there is something to see. We got to the exhibition of Nicholas II, we were very satisfied. The impressions are only positive. An ideal place for believers, and not only.

It is a very reverent place, I had to come here once to understand how much closer to God one can get here. Quiet, neat, well-maintained territory. And the monastery garden with a pond, it should be noted separately, I like to read the Bible or the holy fathers in this garden.

My dream has come true. I've been to this God-forsaken place. Extraordinary goodness, silence, spiritual work and service are felt in everything. There are 3 active Temples on the territory. The Liturgy at different times. There are a lot of people in all of them. But there is enough space for everyone. There is a hotel opposite the monastery. Clean, everything is at the highest level. The Ark refectory is two steps away. Everything is very expensive in Russian rubles. Cards are not accepted in the monastery and shops
. Stock up on cash. There is an exchanger nearby. It works around the clock. By the way, the Mir card or Belarusian cash is only valid at gas stations.

We, the visitors, were taken to this monastery by familiar Minsk residents. The impression is divine! Both from the temples themselves, outside and inside, and from the atmosphere at services, in shops. Samovar soap bought in the store still fills the bathroom with fragrance in the far Arctic, and honey was eaten almost immediately;))

A very beautiful monastery, which can be visited not only for religious, but also for tourist purposes. Several picturesque temples.
There is a cafe, and not one
Next time I will definitely go to the Mill.
It was in winter, and in summer, I think it's even more beautiful here. There is a wonderful fountain in which water broke through the ice even in winter.

The complex of temples in Novinki is definitely recommended for a visit. I went to listen to the sisterhood singing choir, it's just amazing. The atmosphere in the temples is very sublime. I don't know what else to add - come and get into it.

It's just a wonderful place. It is very pleasant to visit the temple here (especially since there are several of them and they are slightly different). How beautifully the choir sings, I already want to cry. In addition, there is a large church shop with books and various products of the monastery (especially angels). I love the honey shop, the shop with natural medicines (we always buy something, the assortment is often updated. We use only monastic shampoos and hair masks, I highly recommend throat sprays with eucalyptus and orange with herbs (I forgot what it's called). Since throat diseases are a constant problem for me, I often use them. If you manage at the first symptoms, you may not get sick. I love monastery pies! If you get there successfully, then there will be a lot of choice. There is also a cafe where you can have a tasty and relatively inexpensive meal. In general, this is a place where you can heal both soul and body. It's definitely worth going here, which I do periodically. I also recommend the monastery's YouTube channel, where you can watch the broadcast of services, sermons, programs for children, conversations with the priest, recipes.

This is the most beautiful monastery. On its territory there are such temples: icons of the Mother of God "Derzhavnaya", the holy royal Martyrs, Nicholas of Myra, Elizabeth the Princess, John of Shanghai.
There is also a hotel where you can choose a room for every taste.
The monastery has an Orthodox kindergarten and an Ihvis school.

It is considered a landmark of Minsk. Two central temples of recent construction, a wooden temple in honor of American saints, for some reason. The painting is of high quality, pay attention to the dome, the saints are registered, the dome in blue tones stands out especially. Near the monastery buildings, a stall selling food, a church shop (they do not take cards in it). There are a lot of hand-made artworks of novices in the shop-paintings, ceramics, etc., it is beautiful and attractive, the price is appropriate. To be honest, the complex as a whole was not impressed, it is better to go to Optina Deserts (by the way, there is an announcement on the stand that there are pilgrimage trips there). Parking along the road, there were places, but on holidays, I think, it is not so free. I recommend stopping by, perhaps your opinion will be different.

Probably the only monastery in the public domain in Minsk. In general, there is a tension with Orthodoxy in Belarus, there are many Catholic cathedrals. They arrange excursions on them, and about Orthodox monasteries, etc. places have been forgotten (((

It's a very very beautiful monastery. I like everything there. The ceilings are beautifully painted and there are icons that help a lot. I'll come there for Easter too. Well, I'm so nervous and when there are no such holidays. I like the way I read prayers there and I like Father Andrew, he is such a kind man and always smiles.

There are three temples on the territory of the monastery. What I personally liked about each of them is "beauty in the prostate". There is also a church shop, and a shop with teas and honey. There is an exhibition "Ark", as well as a cozy cafe. You can get there both by minibus and by bus 18. The monastery is 300 meters from the bus stop. To feel all the beauty and comfort, and at the same time think about the spiritual, it is better to go alone, so that no one and nothing distracts... I advise everyone to visit.

A spiritual place! Along with the administration of Christian sacraments, the monastery carries out a huge, significant social work: teaching children, meeting pilgrims, farming in many different directions, where people can realize themselves close to God! The monastery has been cooperating with the Russian Embassy for many years. Thank you for having such wonderful spiritual abodes!!!

At one time, the daughter-in-law decided to baptize our grandson here - the first boy among the girls- grandchildren. The sacrament itself was impressive. A very friendly atmosphere! Since then, we have often visited these walls, which have become a good abode for us. For better or worse, we are happy to come to this one of the best places of worship in Minsk.
Happiness and joy to you all! Come on!

A wonderful monastery, the choir sings very unobtrusively, the priest reads everything clearly and not quickly for awareness. The monastery itself has a warm and sincere atmosphere. At the entrance to the monastery there is a temple, each icon with relics, each. The saint and his relics on the icon. Stunningly.

I love going to church. Inspiring. Psychologically, it helps to be Kinder. Thanks to Vladimir Krasno, the Sun, for giving us the Greek Faith, i.e. Orthodoxy, by exterminating those who offered blood sacrifices through the Heroes of the word God. Priests and nuns come from this monastery to the hospital for the mentally ill of the Russian Orthodox Church, helping us mentally ill. Yes, I am mentally ill. I really like this place. It's a part of my life.

A place with energy from eternity. Of all the temples in Minsk, I stopped at the monastery to attend services. When I first came here, I realized that this was my place.
They also strive to help people here.
There are often destitute and socially degraded people in the monastery, engaged in some kind of business. And the compound is organized for them, where they work.
It is also very interesting to listen to the sermons of fr. Andrey Lemeshonka. Thanks to the efforts of this priest, the monastery in Minsk appeared

An extraordinary place, an amazing atmosphere!!! Who else doubts, I definitely recommend visiting this monastery -God is truly God almighty, omnipotent and merciful, just not by rushing into half a service like well, how did it happen... With an overnight stay for at least two days, slowly, steadily and thoughtfully in order to feel immersed in the atmosphere of grace...there is a pilgrimage center nearby, everything is very decent and for any purse....and they saved my life when the pandemic started, I watched the services online, so heartfelt and touching, as if they were there with them and with Him...Thank you very much for being there, for your work and your prayer...a low bow....God save us all 🙏
