Saharna Monastery is situated at the distance of 120 km from Chisinau
city. The monastic complex is a natural reservation and carved into the
cliff side. The "Holy Trinity" Monastery of Saharna, situated about 110
km north of Chisinau on the right side of the Nistru, is considered to
be one of the biggest centres for religious pilgrimages in Moldova. Here
can be found the unique relicts of St. Cuvios Macarie, and on the top
of the high cliff, according to a legend, there is a footprint of St.
Maria. The legend says that a monk from the monastery once saw the
shining figure of Saint Maria on the top of a rock. When reaching that
spot the monk saw a mark of a footstep on the ground.
