I recently visited this old monastery ,located near Costesti village .It was built around 1490 by a rich family of noblemen ,Craiovesti.It is a famous place for pilgrims ,attracted by the relics of Saint Gregory Decapolite ,brought here in 1497 from Constantinople .The complex inhabited today by nuns has a nice courtyard ,it was rebuilt many times during its long history and the painting inside was realized by a great Romanian painter ,Gheorghe Tattarascu.In this monastery was printed the first book in the country ,called Liturghierul .Near the monastery we can also visit ,if we follow a narrow path of Bistrita river ,the cave of Saint Grigorie Decapolitul.
