Here’s a Photo of the well-known Monastery Pochiav in Ternopi’l'ska Oblast (Western Ukraine).  Visitors come from all over Ukraine, Poland and other parts of Eastern Europe to see this Monastery and make pilgrimages in the Spring-time. We visited on a very cold but beautiful day. The tops of the Monastery were glistening in the sunlight.  I had to wear the black skirt they gave me as a rule  for entering the church but I was glad to have an extra layer on anyways.
