Visiting New Athos left an unforgettable impression due to the many unique places. The New Athos cave struck with its gigantic size and amazing stalactites and stalagmites. The tour was perfectly organized, and the guide shared fascinating facts and interesting stories.
Quad biking at Quadro Pedro added adrenaline and allowed me to explore the picturesque surroundings. It was a great addition to my journey.
An atmospheric place that is not marked on all maps. The first time I accidentally got in late at night, climbing the stone stairs (to the right of the waterfall) into the inviting dark arch. I illuminated it with a flashlight, the sight of the stone statues was eerie, and there was not a soul around). Early in the morning, there are also no people, no one climbs into the frame, calmly watched the exposition in sunlight, the magic has not disappeared...a wonderful place!)
There is a whole exposition of such amazing and bizarre figures. In the evening, each composition is highlighted, which makes them even more interesting.
An interesting exposition. It's worth a look, especially in the evening with a backlight. If you are walking near the Psyrtskha, then be sure to take a look.
It is very interesting and fabulous! We lived nearby, so we came to see it several times, especially in the evening, when we just went out for a walk around the city. Impressive!
It is very interesting to walk among the sculptures made of wood and stone. I did not know about the sculptor and it is not indicated anywhere that this is an exhibition. But the place was chosen well.

I have seen the sculpture exhibition many times in both sunlight and evening light, and I have a firm opinion that this exhibition only spoils the majestic and unique rock created by nature.
If you come to see the New Athos monastery, you can also go to this alley. It's interesting, it's pretty, but I wouldn't go specifically to walk around it.
Ohhh, I didn't even know it was an exhibition! Nothing is written. But it is interesting, a very fabulous place, sculptures, carvings made of stone and wood. Awesome
Ruslan Pandaria is a personality known not only in New Athos, but also far beyond its borders. A talented sculptor, artist, tireless traveler, creator of a cozy art cafe located next to the New Athos Cave, talented in all his guises.
The exposition of sculptures near the waterfall fits so seamlessly into the surrounding landscape that it seems created by nature itself. This is a real outdoor art museum. One of my favorite places in New Athos.
It is very beautiful, unusual, you can feel the national flavor! You can admire, sit in the majestic throne, dream! It relaxes and feels like you are transported to another era...
Interesting sculptures made of different materials: wood, stone, metal, you can touch, sit down. Everything is done with a national flavor. Here art merges with nature: small waterfalls flow down from the cliff, a streamlet murmurs. A great place for a photo shoot, everything is free.
There were a small group of 3 families. it was interesting for everyone to take pictures near the sculptures (let's call them that) and near the waterfall. there is a souvenir market nearby, the prices are reasonable. they immediately offered to take a picture with a lemur and a lion cub, asking for 200 rubles. parking attendants are indifferent to cars with Abkhazian license plates, they ask for 100 rubles for Russian license plates

Beautiful sculptures, an atmospheric place. We lived in a hotel near the exposition. All the sights were within walking distance.
