Picture a city - any city. For many of us, visions of high-rise buildings, honking traffic and jostling crowds spring to mind. Exciting and exhilarating, sure, but not exactly 'relaxing'. Finding those peaceful pockets of quiet in a city is always possible, from sprawling green spaces and rooftop escapes to subterranean spas, but a city has to tick off more than just a few boxes to be officially termed 'relaxing'.

While traditional vacations are often filled with noise and social interactions, more people are opting for silent retreats in monasteries to escape the chaos of modern life.
