Moscow is an ancient city, and it is quite natural that it is surrounded by various holy places, about which there are legends, where people go to worship and gain strength. Let's make a short trip to these places, visit the holy springs of the Moscow region.
In total, there are a hundred holy springs near the city, but only a few of them are popular. From year to year, pilgrimage to places of power is becoming more and more popular. So, you can even make a list of the most famous sources.
Muranovo Village
Holy springs near Moscow are visited by many tourists from all over the country. For example, the Barsky well in the village of Muranovo is considered a source in the name of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God. People who come here and each asked God for their own, sincerely believe that now everything will change for the better. On the Yaroslavl highway from Moscow, you can get to the source by car. At the 44th kilometer there is a sign "Museum-estate of Tyutchev", you need to turn, and the goal will be reached.
Holy places in the suburbs - Zvenigorod
More oftenall places of power that attract pilgrims are located not far from fairly large cities. So, a ten-minute walk from the Savvino-Storozhevsky Monastery of Zvenigorod is the next attraction - the Holy Spring of St. Savva Storozhevsky. Those who visit the holy springs of the Moscow region are met here by a log chapel with a font, where you can retire and ask the saint.
You can get here by public transport from Moscow by electric train from the Belorussky railway station. Stop Zvenigorod, transfer by buses No. 23, 51 to the stop "Monastyr". There is a bus to Zvenigorod from the Kuntsevo metro station, then travel by buses of the same routes. You can get on your own transport along the Novorizhskoye highway, passing Zvenigorod, then follow the sign "Savvino-Storozhevsky Monastery".
Sergiev Posad
Perhaps the most popular in the rating of "holy springs of the Moscow region" is Gremyachiy Klyuch in the Sergiev Posad region, near the village of Vzglyadnevo. This source is dedicated to Sergius Abbot of the Radonezh location. Everything here is equipped to receive visitors. There is a font where everyone can
to get fully immersed by standing under a stream of pouring holy water. The only negative is that there is no good entrance when you leave the highway. However, this does not frighten the crowds of pilgrims visiting the source. It is very easy to get there by car. From the Moscow Ring Road we drive along the Yaroslavl highway, at the 65th kilometer we turn right at the sign "Nizhny Novgorod", then after 10 kmturn right near the village of Malinniki. Before Bogovo, turn right onto the dirt road, drive through Vzglyadnevo to the source.
These are the most visited holy places in the Moscow region, but there are many more of them, and each place has its own history, its own saint and, of course, has its own power. We do not undertake to assert whether these places really received a blessing from above, or whether they are given strength by the strong faith of people. However, they really give miracles of healing, fulfillment of requests and peace of mind to their pilgrims. One can only rejoice that miracles really do happen and not only in children's fairy tales.
