Monasteries, abbeys and priories all have their own churches attached to the living quarters. Monastic churches are often large, ornate and grand buildings. In the UK some abbey churches were so grand that when the monasteries were destroyed by Henry VIII the churches survived, many of which became cathedrals afterwards as they were so grand. The churches were built by the monks themselves as many trained to be excellent masons and builders.

There are monks in several religions.
However, I can tell you that all of them (that I am aware of) consider prayer to be critical in their daily lives and allows them greater peace and understanding.
Other benefits from prayer vary depending on the religion.
