Per Wikipedia:
The Order of the Brothers of the Blessed Virgin Mary of Mount Carmel or Carmelites (sometimes simply Carmel by synecdoche; Latin: Ordo Fratrum Beatissimæ Virginis Mariæ de Monte Carmelo) is a Roman Catholic religious order founded, probably in the 12th century, on Mount Carmel in the Crusader States, hence the name Carmelites. However, historical records about its origin remain uncertain.[1] Saint Bertold has traditionally been associated with the founding of the order, but few clear records of early Carmelite history have survived, and this is likely to be a later extrapolation by hagiographers

Interesting history and beautiful shot! I love the white buildings nestled in the landscape. Beautiful shot Joyce! l/f!
Joyce Dickens replied:
Thanks so much Meg; I would love to get a better shot, but it is not open to the public and this is shot with a zoom lens from Highway 1 just before heading down the coast. It is between Carmel and Point Lobos across from Carmel State Beach also know to us locals as the Monaster Beach.... xoxo
