Sharing our Treasures Across the Ages and the World - BLAGO went to Patriarchate of Pec |
 July 2007 - Pec, Kosovo & Metohija - For the past 10 years, the BLAGO (Treasure) Fund established by the Serbian Unity Congress has been preserving and promoting Serbian cultural heritage. Creating computerized virtual-reality libraries of the interiors and exteriors of our monasteries, we give people around the world -- Serbs and all others -- a chance to visit these faraway gems of our culture. The center of these treasures historically and in terms of sheer richness, is in the southern Serbian province of Kosovo-and-Metohija, a place that people can today only visit with a heavily armed escort of NATO troops to protect against Albanian attack.
Having already recorded virtual libraries of the monasteries of Gracanica (gra-cha-nee-tsa) and Decani (de-cha-nee) our BLAGO (Treasure) team set out this summer for the Patriarchate of Pec (pech), a Serbian crown jewel and beacon of Christianity in Kosovo-and-Metohija.
