We are walking in the rain and the first monument we pass by is this church. It is crowded, there are two cruise ships in the bay and everyone wants to visit something inside. The entrance fee is 2 euro, the people selling tickets are very happy with so many visitors.
The relics of Saint Tryphon, the patron saint of Kotor, were kept in an older church on this spot. This Romanic church was built in 1166. Inside the church the brick wall give a strong robust impression. The altar looks like a temple in several levels; an angel with golden wings looks down into the church. On the first floor starts the museum with a wall full of frescoes, they also display paintings, silverware, old bibles and books.
We wandelen door de regen en het eerste monument dat we tegen komen is deze kerk. Met twee cruise schepen in de baai is het hier heel druk iedereen wil iets binnen bezoeken zolang het regent. De ingang kost 2 euro en de mensen die toegangskaartjes verkopen zijn zeer blij met al deze bezoekers.
De overblijfselen van Saint Tryphon, de patroonheilige van Kotor, worden bewaard onder deze kerk. De Romaanse kerk werd gebouwd in 1166. De bakstenen steunzuilen geven het interieur een robuuste indruk. Het altaar in verschillende niveaus lijkt op een tempel, op de top staat een engel met gouden vleugels die in de kerk neer kijkt. Op het eerste verdiep begint het museum met een muur van fresco’s, men toont er ook schilderijen, zilverwerk, oude bijbels en boeken..

ReplyDeleteทำนายฝัน Online betting where the player will be able to meet and experience the gambling to make good value for all gamblers with the system of betting to the highest standards. The player bets at all times. In addition, the casinos know that it is a risk to enter the casino with a risk. I was wrong to change. This is probably the wrong time to go. I would like to keep track of the teacher to each other 3-4 times, or that the new players I want to find information and record each of them before I go to see if the teacher is accurate or close. Then came to play. I would recommend playing 40 dresses often. And the important thing is to be 100-200 profit, it is profit. Do not play to sow all over. I have not played it yet. However, joining a gambler with a novelty can make the player come to bet easily at the online casino. เลขเด็ดไทยรัฐ
