It was built in 1580 and was enlarged in the 17th century. The over 20,000-square-meter monastery was built predominantly in the Mud�jar style, and is characterized by its vividly painted walls.
There are approximately 20 nuns currently living in the northern corner of the complex; the rest of the monastery is open to the public.
