Established in the 5th century, the Convent of Mar Saba is one of the oldest continuously inhabited monasteries in the world, holding deep historical and spiritual significance for Christians and Orthodox believers. The image captures the monastery's timeless beauty, with its ancient stone walls, red-tiled roofs, and intricate arches. The lanterns, hanging from the balconies and terraces, cast a warm, inviting glow over the monastery, creating an ethereal atmosphere.
