The Michelin Guide's review
This is the wonder of the Marathasa Valley. The chapel of this monastery, now deconsecrated, is composed of three successive buildings, built between the 11C and 15C. The paintings that adorn their walls are also from different periods. The most interesting are in the last chapel, the most recent. You detect a strong Western influence, particularly in the use of perspective in a spectacular Cavalcade of the Three Wise Men.
