Sucevita Monastery

This 16th-century painted monastery boasts thousands of images against a green background.

Reviewed By 118val - Shepparton, Australia

A fortress church with a really thick wall surrounding it. The wall paintings both inside and outside are impressive with the colour green being more prominent than other church painting we had seen. The church is very high so the acoustics are really good. We were lucky enough to here the pure voices of the Nuns singing as a service was in progress while we visited.

Moldovita Monastery

Founded in 1532, this monastery's frescoes recreate the siege of Constantinople.

Reviewed By guide_florin - Suceava, Romania

This monastery is placed in a wonderful landscape, the walls built from river stone are decorated with bricks and connect the rounded towers who defended the church many centuries. Inside you will discover a small museum where they have the real trone of Petru Rares and an award from UNESCO - Pomme d'Or.

Putna Monastery

Reviewed By ilieadrianp - Otopeni, Romania

Must see for Romanian orthodox pilgrims and for lovers of art & history. The interior of the main church and the architecture are very beautiful. The inside paintings of the church were restored in the 2000s. Free entrance to the church, but no pictures / videos are allowed inside (only outside for a few of 10 RON). Museum available for visit against a fee. A nice shop outside the entrance with souvenirs, religious books and the like, cash only. Fair road to it, but pay attention to the other monastery located only a few km down the road, not to mix the locations by the GPS. Several accommodation and eating places nearby. No street sellers, at least at the moment of our visit (5-6 PM on 01.01).

6. Hanul Domnesc

Cacica Salt Mine

Reviewed By vinskath01

What a great place to visit! It’s off the beaten track but well worth the effort. 42 m below the surface you will find tunnels, A church, a ballroom, a lake that wants offered boat rides, a sports area including soccer nets, and a museum. At 15 lei ($5 Canadian) it’s a bargain for the whole family.
