Saint Nikola’s Kapinovo Monastery is an amazing monument of the Old Bulgarian architecture and arts, lying at the foothills of the beautiful Elena part of the Balkan Range, some 18 km from Veliko Tarnovo. Viewed from the north, it resembled a medieval citadel. Huge wooden gates and precipitous flights of granite steps lead from the dormitories to a vast courtyard, immersed in silence and tranquility.
