Back toward the sea and the Bay of Kotor, we followed Morača Canyon stopping at Morača Monastery for a lunch break. The outside frescoes were weathered, but we were awed as we stepped inside the small St Nicholas Church (Crkva Sv Nikole). So many of the churches here have been destroyed in conflicts over the ages that to find one in such a state of preservation is glorious.
The larger Church of the Dormition (Crkva Uspenja Bogorodice) has an amazing frescoe with a slide of fire to hell, two-headed sea monsters and angels spearing deamons......sounds like Dan Brown.
