Most larger monasteries have guest houses or rooms for pilgrims and visitors. However, in most cases, monasteries for men will only accept male pilgrims staying overnight, and monasteries for women (or convents) will only accept female pilgrims staying overnight. It is also important to remember that monasteries require visitors and pilgrims to dress appropriately before being allowed in. For example, no shorts or short sleeves or revealing clothes are allowed. Where possible, it is always best to ring in advance to ask about their dress code, and also to ask if there are available beds or accommodation for visitors and pilgrims.
