2014 Dodge Journey Performance Review
Critics say that buyers should skip the 2014 Dodge Journey's underpowered four-cylinder engine and go for the V6 option, which they say delivers ample power in most situations. Both models receive subpar fuel economy estimates, but the V6-powered Journey’s numbers are only slightly less than those of the four-cylinder model. Most auto reviewers say the 2014 Dodge Journey has adequate handling around corners, but that it doesn't quite live up to the sporty driving dynamics of some rivals.

- "If you want to spruce up the Journey's performance, the R/T model's more responsive suspension and powerful standard V6 make shuttling the kids to school quite enjoyable." -- AutoTrader
- "Accordingly, we'd avoid the four-cylinder entirely and step up to the 3.6-liter V6, which feels potent in any situation. Unfortunately, fuel economy is still below average, and the six-speed automatic transmission can be slow to respond when a downshift is needed." -- Edmunds
- "Although the 2013 Dodge Journey might look as though it would ride and handle like a tall SUV, the feeling we experienced seemed more in keeping with a well-mannered wagon." -- Kelley Blue Book (2013)
Acceleration and Power
The 2014 Dodge Journey comes standard with a 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine that produces 173 horsepower and a four-speed automatic transmission. A 3.6-liter V6 engine that puts out 283 horsepower and a six-speed automatic transmission are available on upper trims. The base Journey trails the class in fuel efficiency with an estimated 19/26 mpg city/highway. Rivals like the Nissan Rogue and Mitsubishi Outlander Sport earn significantly better numbers.
The four-cylinder Dodge Journey receives criticism from automotive journalists who say its acceleration is dull. Test drivers say that buyers should opt for the V6 engine, which has plenty of power for typical driving conditions. Reviewers note that the V6 Journey doesn't sacrifice much fuel efficiency for its more potent performance. The front-wheel drive V6 model gets 17/25 mpg city/highway, which is still poor for the class, but only slightly less than the four-cylinder Journey's estimates.
- "A lackluster four-cylinder engine is by far the weakest link on the 2014 Dodge Journey. Not only is acceleration sluggish on this version, fuel economy is well below average for this class mainly due to Dodge's continued use of an outdated four-speed automatic transmission." -- Edmunds
- "Most buyers will want to skip the anemic four and opt for the strong 3.6-liter Pentastar V6, which serves up 283-horsepower and 260 lb-ft. Mated to a six-speed automatic, the Pentastar returns almost the same mileage as the smaller mill - 17/25 mpg - in front-wheel-drive form, while an optional all-wheel-drive system lowers efficiency to 16/24 mpg." -- Left Lane News
- "A big plus is the Journey's optional 3.6-liter V6 engine, which is one of the best on the market and delivers generous power with smooth operation and noteworthy fuel economy." -- Kelley Blue Book
Handling and Braking
Some reviewers say that the 2014 Dodge Journey has a soft, car-like ride, and that it cruises over uneven pavement and rugged roads with ease. However, others write that while the Dodge Journey's handling is adequate, buyers should consider compact SUVs like the Mazda CX-5 for sportier handling.
- "The Journey's high driving position and angled steering column may bring school buses to mind. Fortunately, the Journey's dynamics are much better, as this car-based crossover has no trouble navigating rutted roads and tight streets. Underneath, the Journey is related to the Dodge Avenger sedan, and it shares that car's soft, quiet ride on the highway." -- AutoTrader
- "On the move, the Journey is competent for the class, with a smooth ride and secure handling. That said, we'd steer you toward a CR-V, Santa Fe or Sorento if ride comfort is your priority, while the Mazda 5, CX-5 or Escape would get our vote if you're looking for a utility vehicle with a sportier handling feel." -- Edmunds
- "The 2014 Dodge Journey certainly looks like an upright SUV, but the first time behind the wheel will prove it drives like a very competent car. The suspension has the compliance to deal with all sorts of bumps and bad pavement yet, on those curving mountain roads or even just freeway onramps, it has a level of firmness and control that keeps the Journey cornering securely and with a minimum of bobbing and weaving." -- Kelley Blue Book

Dodge Journey
Smaller than the typical mid-sized SUV, this version of the Journey is a dated and mediocre performer. It rides well and is quiet, but that's about all. It suffers from a lack of agility, lousy fuel economy from the optional 3.6-liter V6, a reluctant transmission, and a tiny third-row seat. Poor IIHS small overlap crash-test results add to the long list of demerits.

In most cases, automotive warranties are based on the vehicle identification number (VIN), and the warranty will be valid regardless of ownership. The dealership can tell you exactly how much warranty is left.
The 2011 reworking brought a much nicer interior and a better V6, but the lack of agility and still-mediocre fuel economy keep it out of the top ranks. Plus it was more expensive than many better rivals. Poor IIHS small overlap crash-test results and below average owner satisfaction add to the long list of demerits. Three row seating became standard for 2018. Ultimately, we think you'd be better served looking at something else. The V6 engine and all-wheel drive were dropped in 2020 and the Journey finally came to an end.

2014 Journey 2.4 with red lightning bolt and traction control light on
By Thomas112 March 15, 2019 in Engine & Transmission

Recommended Posts
I have a 2014 Journey 2.4 with some issues. The red lightning bolt (throttle control) and traction control light came on. The red lightning bolt comes on briefly and the trac light stays on. This happens at various speeds, and now every time. I checked for codes with a generic OBDII scanner, but has none. The Battery and alternator seem to be working fine according to the parts store. Not sure if anyone can help, but would like to get some intel before just throwing parts at it. I recently did a transmission service, by replacing the filter and fluid. I used the required ATF+4 fluid and Lucas additive. Surely this would not affect it, but it does shift funny. I do not have a complete loss of power like I've read others post on line. It seems to go in a brief limp mode, but the traction light stays on when this happens.
Any ideas????
Thanks in advance,

Throttle body issue or gas pedal position sensor issue. Try this:
- Insert ignition key and turn to "ON" position but do not start the engine
- Wait for all the warning lights to go out. The check engine light may remain on.
- Slowly depress the accelerator pedal all the way to the floor.
- Slowly release the accelerator pedal until it is all the way back up at the rest position.
- Turn the ignition key to "OFF" position.
- Start the engine and test the throttle by see if the engine will throttle up
If that does not work, you may need to replace the tb or position sensor, or there may be a flash update required by the dealer. Hard to say if there is no code present.

Ive got that same issue as well going on with my 2014 journey 2.4l engine. Ive changed out throttle body with new part now i get a obdcode p2173(vaccum leak)in which ive check an non are present, now i get the traction light coming on too. What could be the problem??? Help ASAP??
Was a new gasket used when throttle body was replaced. Doesn’t matter if it still looked pretty and clean. They get compressed and stay that way, contour or shape will match the old throttle body flange. It also could be the large intake gasket on the manifold. Changing throttle body involves unhooking lots of stuff, double check all connections from previous work. Easy to miss something.
A generic cheaper scanner won’t always pick up all the codes. Newer expensive scanner like shops or dealer have, can sometimes do more. Gas pedal potentiometer is another lightning bolt causing sensor failure. With associated codes.

Thanks john, I'll be trying that spraying carb around to look for leaks. Would that make the traction light come on as well and sudden lightingbolt light too.
Hope its just a vacuum leak ????
Not sure about traction control light. It’s often turned on by a wheel sensor acting up. But lightning symbol triggering limp biscuit mode can cause weird stuff sometimes. Deal with vacuum leak first. You could have more than one issue.
How is electrical plug after switching throttle body unit out.
Some people have issues with lock mechanism on plug being big pia, end up mangling plug.
Thanks john, but plug look ok.. was think bout changing out gasket from manifold bit 1st search for that vacuum leak. But where exactly can i spray carb cleaner to see where leak is.
You can’t get to the whole gasket, but where flanges are exposed lightly spray around as much of perimeter as possible.
Look at pic of manifold assembly. Fluid will flow around connections, listen for idle to speed up, you have leak location when that happens. Mechanics use this method sometimes.
New throttle body shouldn’t be bad, more room around it. Car on ramps for max clearance.
Where can i find a good pic of manifold assembly to see where vacuum connect
How can i check ✅ if the throttle body butterfly plate is Opening n responding to pedal pressed down? Any ideas
I posted a pic from rockauto on your other thread of intake manifold and gasket.
With intake piping removed look in the intake with car running, have someone press gas and you will see see butterfly moving slightly open if the plug is properly connected. There will be a few codes probably triggered by doing this.
Just turning on ignition and pressing gas pedal with car off might also move butterfly, not sure.
The red oring is the throttle body gasket you should have changed when throttle body was replaced. Even mopar one is only $10.

Ended up taking it to mechanic down the block,he placed smoketest to search for vacuum leak and said it didnt had none. So went on to diagnose the checkengine light n yes throttle was reprogram n they cleared the codes. Drove back home good. Next morning, same problem,check engine light is back, red lightning bolt blinking, n traction control light is on. Im wondering if the throttle body could be defective,maybe?
Should i just change it again myself n see if the problem goes away? HELP??♂️
wpginterceptor
Just the Traction light is on?? or is the ABS and Traction light on?? the traction control works thru the ABS.. if you have a bad ABS sensor then both lights will be on!! this has happened to me, i pulled each sensor and cleaned them with windex, put them back and light when out after a short drive.. never came on again since then and that was 5 years ago now!!
Was the original throttle body you removed doing same thing, lightning bolt and same code ?
Was the second one you put on, remanufactured, or a new unit? Hitachi is the factory make, rockauto sells it brand new.
What is the code that is now turned on since you drove car?
Yes ,i would get the same codes before changing out oem part , now that i installed the new part ,(which i bought off carparts.com) remaufacterd part it still having same code. [Checkenginelightcode2173,blinking red lightning bolt,tractioncontol off warning light on dash]
Ask for another part, say it’s defective, should be warranty on it. Reman stuff can sometimes be iffy.

‘14 I have the same ETC light , traction control light, etc about a year ago went into limp mode I pulled into a shop , a mechanic came out and told me the sequence to reset it, said if there is a real problem it will come back in but it never did now a year later same circumstances humid heat indexes 110 plus then rain and BAM thru the light again and limp mode and I’ll be damn if I can’t find the sequence but it was a key on, press pedal 3 or 5 times quick, wait 10, press and hold for 7 , wait
but can’t remember anyone have it? I am going to go to dealership also cuz I just hit 100,000 miles so my guess needs update but would rather not have lights on when I do

A '14 model year wit the 4 cyl. motor and at 100k miles? Have you ever had the spark plugs replaced or had the throttle body cleaned?
With ETC light on, yes it will trigger traction control and other lights also as you try and drive with the ETC light on and in "limp mode".

Nice find, but it says for NISSAN. never heard of this for any of the Dodge/Chrysler products.and I've been around them and on forums for them for a long time. Would be nice to know if this is "legit" for our vehicles.
Is this what your talking about? ETC Throttle Calibration/Characterization: Late LX/LC Model (5.7LTR HEMI) Charger/Challenger Throttle calibration procedure. It basically does a zero/span characterization for PCM on fly-by-wire throttle system. This procedure if followed correctly will hold until battery power is cycled again. PCM Zero/Span Throttle Calibration Throttle calibration can substantially improve throttle responsiveness over "factory standard." Many people notice what appears to be sluggish throttle response or a "dead area" at initial accelerator depression. Throttle calibration can take care of these. Procedure steps: 1) Insert ignition key and turn to "ON" (not start). 2) Wait for all idiot lights to go out. Check Engine Light may remain on. 3) Slowly depress the accelerator pedal all the way to the floor. (HOLD to the floor for about a three second count.) (On some PCM versions, Engine Check light may start flashing here) 4) Slowly release the accelerator pedal until it's all the way back up. 5) Turn the ignition key to "OFF". 6) Start the engine. Most drivers notice an immediate change in throttle response, but depending on your driving style, you may need to repeat this procedure periodically due to the computer's adaptive programming. NOTE: You will likely need to repeat this procedure any time the battery is disconnected.

Remanufactured engines consist of the re-machined long block, and they include block casting. With any purchase, you can expect the following to come with the remanufactured engine:
- Connecting rods
- New rod bearings
- Camshaft and timing chain
- Cylinder heads (including head castings and all required machining)
- New rocker arms, pushrods, and lifters
- Full gasket set
- New oil pump
The remanufacturing process ensures that every part has been re-machined or replaced to meet or exceed OEM standards. Our remanufactured engines for sale are among the highest quality in the industry today.
We ensure the most competitive prices! Our assurance in our pricing extends to matching or surpassing any competitor's price. This pledge applies when comparing the overall expenses, encompassing price, shipping, tax, warranty, labor, core policy, and price post-core return. This price match guarantee is specifically for our remanufactured products.
Our core return policy helps us manage the cost and supply to continue our operation. The core is your old engine that is being replaced which needs to be sent to us. For core returns, we cover all shipping costs.
Please keep in mind that our FREE core return shipping is ultimately the customer’s responsibility. While we handle the cost, it is up to you to initiate the process and arrange for the core pickup. When your new part installation is finished, you can reach us by phone at (877) 343-7352 . You can also visit our core return page to arrange the core return.
Schedule your core pickup within 30 days of delivery, and there will be no upfront core charge (there are exceptions when our Waive Core Now option is unavailable).
With our Waive Core Charge service, core returns are simplified. Your core charge is waived for 30 days, so your new engine can be installed prior to returning your core. When you select this option, you give Reman Engine the right to bill your credit card if the core return is not returned within 30 days of part delivery (some exceptions do exist and will be noted in the purchase agreement).
In the case that the core is not returned or not paid for, the warranty for the remanufactured engine is void. If the core charge is billed prior to the core return, there will be a $50 processing fee that will be deducted from the core return refund.
Reman Engine offers fast flat-rate shipping to commercial locations. Home businesses and businesses that are not commercially zoned are not considered commercial addresses. If there is no liftgate at the shipping location there will be a $99 fee to the carrier.
The commercial location must be able to receive freight shipping with no need for prior notification. Forklift unloading from the truck is necessary. We ask that commercial businesses enable us to ship directly to the repair shop or dealership doing the work.
Some locations (typically remote areas) may require an additional delivery fee. These locations include but are not limited to select locations in CO, UT, NY, OR, and CA.
High order volumes, inclement weather, or other circumstances outside of our control can impact shipping and delivery times. We always try to ship your order as soon as we possibly can. It should be noted that shipping times are our best estimate and not a guarantee. We also do not assume responsibility for additional fees charged by the carrier related to storage or re-delivery issues.
All of our parts are visually inspected before shipping. Sometimes, damage does occur during shipping. It is very important that you inspect all parts for damage when they are delivered. Please report any damaged, missing parts, or wrong orders. A failure to report any problems inhibits our ability to correct them and puts all responsibility on the receiver.
At Reman Engine, we warranty the majority of internal engine parts. We guarantee that they will ship with no defects in materials or workmanship. All warranty periods begin from the date of installation, contingent on the installation being managed by a Licensed Automotive Repair Facility. Please refer to our full warranty disclosure page here, https://reman-engine.com/warranty-info .
The Unique Burial of a Child of Early Scythian Time at the Cemetery of Saryg-Bulun (Tuva)
<< Previous page
Pages: 379-406
In 1988, the Tuvan Archaeological Expedition (led by M. E. Kilunovskaya and V. A. Semenov) discovered a unique burial of the early Iron Age at Saryg-Bulun in Central Tuva. There are two burial mounds of the Aldy-Bel culture dated by 7th century BC. Within the barrows, which adjoined one another, forming a figure-of-eight, there were discovered 7 burials, from which a representative collection of artifacts was recovered. Burial 5 was the most unique, it was found in a coffin made of a larch trunk, with a tightly closed lid. Due to the preservative properties of larch and lack of air access, the coffin contained a well-preserved mummy of a child with an accompanying set of grave goods. The interred individual retained the skin on his face and had a leather headdress painted with red pigment and a coat, sewn from jerboa fur. The coat was belted with a leather belt with bronze ornaments and buckles. Besides that, a leather quiver with arrows with the shafts decorated with painted ornaments, fully preserved battle pick and a bow were buried in the coffin. Unexpectedly, the full-genomic analysis, showed that the individual was female. This fact opens a new aspect in the study of the social history of the Scythian society and perhaps brings us back to the myth of the Amazons, discussed by Herodotus. Of course, this discovery is unique in its preservation for the Scythian culture of Tuva and requires careful study and conservation.

Full Edmunds Review: 2014 Dodge Journey SUV
The 2014 Dodge Journey receives minor trim level updates but is otherwise unchanged.
Edmunds says
An available V6 engine and a third-row seat make the 2014 Dodge Journey a decent pick for families on a budget, but overall it falls short of newer crossovers with more powerful four-cylinder engines and better fuel mileage ratings.
Vehicle overview
The 2014 Dodge Journey is a roomy, versatile crossover SUV that straddles the divide between compact and midsize utility vehicles. It's one of the few remaining crossovers in its price range that offers both an available V6 engine and a third-row seat. In addition, its interior is pleasant, well-trimmed and comfortable. However, in a segment full of strong competitors, the Journey comes up short in a couple of critical areas.
A lackluster four-cylinder engine is by far the weakest link on the 2014 Dodge Journey. Not only is acceleration sluggish on this version but fuel economy is well below average, mainly due to Dodge's continued use of an outdated four-speed automatic transmission. If you're going to buy a Dodge Journey, it's worth springing for the optional 3.6-liter V6 -- something you'll have to do anyway if you want all-wheel drive, which isn't offered with the four-cylinder. The six-cylinder is potent and smooth, and paired with a more modern six-speed automatic transmission. Of course, equipping your Journey with the V6 also raises the price by several thousand dollars.
If you can get past those issues, the 2014 Dodge Journey can be more useful for families than some other compact SUVs. It has an optional third row of seating appropriately sized for two small children, and you can get built-in booster seats in the second row. There are useful storage areas, too. You can store snacks and cold drinks in bins built into the floor of the second-row seating area, and a compartment under the front passenger seat is handy for stashing valuables.
These conveniences are certainly nice to have, but consumers have plenty of choices for a compact or midsize utility vehicle. The popular 2014 Honda CR-V is one of our favorites and an excellent pick if you want a small crossover with a refined, fuel-efficient four-cylinder engine and don't need a third row of seating. Rivals like the Mazda CX-5 and Ford Escape feel sportier from behind the wheel and also offer superior fuel economy.
Among the seven-passenger vehicles in this price range, the newer 2014 Hyundai Santa Fe and 2014 Kia Sorento stand out for their smooth V6 engines, superior mpg ratings and slightly larger interiors. Base versions of the Kia are comparable in price to the Journey, but higher-line versions of the Sorento and Santa Fe cost significantly more. If you're on a tight budget but still need three rows of seating, the Mazda 5 minivan is a good alternative to the four-cylinder Journey.
Based on the strength of the competition, the 2014 Dodge Journey is not among our top picks for a seven-passenger crossover. However, if you run across a good deal on a V6 model, it's still worth a test-drive.
2014 Dodge Journey models
The 2014 Dodge Journey is available in five- and seven-passenger configurations. It is available in American Value Package (AVP), SE, SXT, Limited and R/T trim levels.
The American Value Package comes standard with 17-inch steel wheels, heated mirrors, keyless ignition/entry, cruise control, dual-zone manual climate control, a height-adjustable driver seat, a tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel, a sliding and reclining second-row seat and a six-speaker sound system with a compact 4.3-inch touchscreen interface, a CD player, an auxiliary audio jack and an iPod/USB audio interface.
The SE adds tinted glass, roof rails and LED taillights. Moving up to the SXT adds 17-inch alloy wheels, foglamps, unique front/rear fascias, a cargo cover and net, and satellite radio.
The Limited adds a V6 engine as standard, remote start, 19-inch alloy wheels, automatic headlamps, leather upholstery, heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, a six-way power driver seat (with four-way lumbar adjustment), dual-zone automatic climate control, Bluetooth phone and audio connectivity, an 8.4-inch touchscreen audio display, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, a 115-volt power outlet and a fold-flat front passenger seat with hidden storage bin.
The R/T includes all the Limited features (minus the roof rails) and adds a monochrome exterior treatment, special 19-inch wheels, a sport-tuned suspension, black perforated-leather upholstery with red stitching and a premium audio system.
Many of the features on the Limited and R/T are available on the lower trims via option packages. Other available features (depending on trim) include the Blacktop package (gloss black 19-inch wheels, grille and exterior trim), a sunroof, rear parking sensors, a rearview camera, a folding and reclining third-row seat, three-zone automatic climate control (with rear air-conditioning), integrated second-row child booster seats, a rear-seat entertainment system, a navigation system (paired with the 8.4-inch touchscreen) and Wi-Fi connectivity.

Performance & mpg
The 2014 Dodge Journey AVP, SE and SXT are powered by a 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine that produces 173 horsepower and 166 pound-feet of torque. A four-speed automatic transmission is standard, and you can only get front-wheel drive with this engine. Fuel economy ratings are 21 mpg combined (19 city/26 highway) – well below average for a four-cylinder crossover.
Optional on the SXT and standard on the Limited and R/T is a 3.6-liter V6. It's good for 283 hp and 260 lb-ft and is matched to a six-speed automatic. Front-wheel drive is standard and all-wheel drive is optional. We recorded a 7.8-second 0-60-mph time in a front-drive, V6-equipped Journey, which is about average for a V6 crossover in this price range. Fuel economy stands at 19 mpg combined (17 mpg city/25 mpg highway) with front-wheel drive and 19 mpg combined (16/24) with all-wheel drive; both are below average for a V6-powered crossover in this price range.
Every 2014 Dodge Journey comes standard with antilock disc brakes, traction and stability control, active front head restraints, front side airbags, side curtain airbags and a driver knee airbag. Integrated second-row child booster seats and rear parking sensors are optional on every Journey. A rearview camera is available as an option on the SXT, Limited and R/T.
In Edmunds brake testing, a Journey V6 FWD came to a stop from 60 mph in 124 feet, an average performance for this class.
In government crash tests, the Journey received four out of five stars for overall crash protection, with four stars awarded for frontal-impact protection and five stars for side-impact protection. In crash testing by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, the Journey received the top score of "Good" in the moderate-overlap frontal-offset, side-impact and roof-strength tests.
The 2014 Dodge Journey has different personalities depending on which engine you choose. The four-cylinder engine is noisy and really doesn't have enough power to get this heavy crossover moving. The outdated four-speed automatic transmission that comes with this engine does the Journey no favors in the fuel economy department, either.
Accordingly, we'd avoid the four-cylinder entirely and step up to the 3.6-liter V6, which feels potent in any situation. Unfortunately, fuel economy is still below average, and the six-speed automatic transmission can be slow to respond when a downshift is needed.
Around town, the Journey provides a smooth ride. However, the steering is on the slow side, and you might find yourself having to make more hand movements than you would otherwise prefer. When driven harder through turns, the Journey's body leans noticeably. Overall, the Journey just doesn't present much in the way of confidence-inspiring handling.
Inside, the Dodge Journey's materials are high in quality, the design is clean and modern and the available technology is pretty easy to use. We especially like the 8.4-inch touchscreen interface offered in all models except the SE. It's intuitive to use and is available with or without navigation.
Other strengths for the Journey include clever storage bins built into the floor, and options such as a fold-flat front passenger seat and integrated child booster seats for the second row that make life easier for families. Also helping that cause is the Journey's available third-row seat, which is bundled with a separate rear air-conditioner. This seat is far from adult-friendly, but if you need to take a couple extra kids to a T-ball game, it's handy.
The Dodge offers a total cargo capacity of 67.6 cubic feet with all its rear seats folded. That's a few cubes smaller than competitors likes the Sorento and CR-V, but more space than the Chevy Equinox.

Savvino-storozhevsky monastery and museum.
![Savvino-Storozhevsky Monastery and Museum Savvino-Storozhevsky Monastery and Museum](https://rusmania.com/sites/default/files/styles/sight_cover/public/monastery-1-6.jpg?itok=jTe81t5t)
Zvenigorod's most famous sight is the Savvino-Storozhevsky Monastery, which was founded in 1398 by the monk Savva from the Troitse-Sergieva Lavra, at the invitation and with the support of Prince Yury Dmitrievich of Zvenigorod. Savva was later canonised as St Sabbas (Savva) of Storozhev. The monastery late flourished under the reign of Tsar Alexis, who chose the monastery as his family church and often went on pilgrimage there and made lots of donations to it. Most of the monastery’s buildings date from this time. The monastery is heavily fortified with thick walls and six towers, the most impressive of which is the Krasny Tower which also serves as the eastern entrance. The monastery was closed in 1918 and only reopened in 1995. In 1998 Patriarch Alexius II took part in a service to return the relics of St Sabbas to the monastery. Today the monastery has the status of a stauropegic monastery, which is second in status to a lavra. In addition to being a working monastery, it also holds the Zvenigorod Historical, Architectural and Art Museum.
Belfry and Neighbouring Churches
![dodge journey 2014 2.4](https://rusmania.com/perch/resources/monastery-3-1.jpg)
Located near the main entrance is the monastery's belfry which is perhaps the calling card of the monastery due to its uniqueness. It was built in the 1650s and the St Sergius of Radonezh’s Church was opened on the middle tier in the mid-17th century, although it was originally dedicated to the Trinity. The belfry's 35-tonne Great Bladgovestny Bell fell in 1941 and was only restored and returned in 2003. Attached to the belfry is a large refectory and the Transfiguration Church, both of which were built on the orders of Tsar Alexis in the 1650s.
![dodge journey 2014 2.4](https://rusmania.com/perch/resources/monastery-2-3.jpg)
To the left of the belfry is another, smaller, refectory which is attached to the Trinity Gate-Church, which was also constructed in the 1650s on the orders of Tsar Alexis who made it his own family church. The church is elaborately decorated with colourful trims and underneath the archway is a beautiful 19th century fresco.
Nativity of Virgin Mary Cathedral
![dodge journey 2014 2.4](https://rusmania.com/perch/resources/monastery-13.jpg)
The Nativity of Virgin Mary Cathedral is the oldest building in the monastery and among the oldest buildings in the Moscow Region. It was built between 1404 and 1405 during the lifetime of St Sabbas and using the funds of Prince Yury of Zvenigorod. The white-stone cathedral is a standard four-pillar design with a single golden dome. After the death of St Sabbas he was interred in the cathedral and a new altar dedicated to him was added.
![dodge journey 2014 2.4](https://rusmania.com/perch/resources/monastery-7-3.jpg)
Under the reign of Tsar Alexis the cathedral was decorated with frescoes by Stepan Ryazanets, some of which remain today. Tsar Alexis also presented the cathedral with a five-tier iconostasis, the top row of icons have been preserved.
Tsaritsa's Chambers
![dodge journey 2014 2.4](https://rusmania.com/perch/resources/monastery-12-1.jpg)
The Nativity of Virgin Mary Cathedral is located between the Tsaritsa's Chambers of the left and the Palace of Tsar Alexis on the right. The Tsaritsa's Chambers were built in the mid-17th century for the wife of Tsar Alexey - Tsaritsa Maria Ilinichna Miloskavskaya. The design of the building is influenced by the ancient Russian architectural style. Is prettier than the Tsar's chambers opposite, being red in colour with elaborately decorated window frames and entrance.
![dodge journey 2014 2.4](https://rusmania.com/perch/resources/monastery-32.jpg)
At present the Tsaritsa's Chambers houses the Zvenigorod Historical, Architectural and Art Museum. Among its displays is an accurate recreation of the interior of a noble lady's chambers including furniture, decorations and a decorated tiled oven, and an exhibition on the history of Zvenigorod and the monastery.
Palace of Tsar Alexis
![dodge journey 2014 2.4](https://rusmania.com/perch/resources/monastery-14-2.jpg)
The Palace of Tsar Alexis was built in the 1650s and is now one of the best surviving examples of non-religious architecture of that era. It was built especially for Tsar Alexis who often visited the monastery on religious pilgrimages. Its most striking feature is its pretty row of nine chimney spouts which resemble towers.
