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

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.

These monasteries are a must visit for anyone wanted a taste of the real romania. Dedicated by Stefan Cel Mare after victories in battle, they are covered in intricate and beautiful artwork. The paint used is a natural recipe that cannot be recreated, making them hard to maintain and protect. Despite this, they are beautiful and complex and the fading from the wind in some sense only makes them more interesting. There is also "graffiti" (carvings in the stone walls on some of the monasteries), some of them from over 200 years ago, that is interesting to see.

This painted nun monastery is often referred to as the "Sistine Chapel of the East."

We stayed in Suceava, in NE Romania and visited several painted monasteries in the surrounding area. The monastery in Voronet was the best preserved one we visited. Extraordinary frescoes adorn the exterior and the interior of the church. The monastery is surrounded by beautifully kept flower beds. If you only have time to visit one painted monastery, I highly recommend the Voronet Monastery.

Through the frescoes decorating it, both inside and outside, the Humor Monastery (1535) joins the Voronet, Arbore, Moldovita, Sucevita and Probota Monasteries and represents the Romanian art from the 15th-16th centuries. The exterior fresco is the oldest decoration of its kind in Romania. The monastery is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Indoor photography is not allowed and the outfit must be decent.
6. Bucovina Village Museum

Small and compact village museum. However, in terms of attention to interior house details, it's a 10/10. Interiors are reconstructed to perfection! All the important village interiors are presented: the potter, the blacksmith, the pub, water mill, the oil mill, church, primary school, weaving house, coats workshop, stables, barns along with traditional village homes with all their traditions such as agriculture tools, baptising, wedding, funeral rituals and many more. Unexpectedly amazing!
7. Bogdana Monastery

We read about how significant the church is for these lands. It's the oldest stone church still standing in its original form (almost) and it is a necropolis for the first few rulers of Musatini dinasty. The church is extremely beautiful, with a Romanic architectural style (not Byzantine as the others) and the paintings, redone, are also fascinating and different. Romanians should bow to this place more.

It's a nice park, quite big where you can go chill (literally, in the summer), escape tbe heat and just hang out with friends or set up your hammock and enjoy a quiet afternoon by yourself. There are food and drinks vendors in the park.
9. Suceava Fortress

Bucovina Museum - The fortress of Suceava, built at the end of the 14th century near the medieval city of Suceava, has been the main residence of the Moldavian princes for almost 200 years, today a historical monument of national level. In 2016 in the Fortress of Suceava was organized the first permanent exhibition illustrating themes of great interest to the public, such as the first and most comprehensive presentation of medieval weapons in Moldavia, the coats of arms of Moldavian rulers and noblemen from the 14th - 17th centuries or the medieval Treasure of Moldavia. Multimedia systems with medieval historical themes and video projections with subjects related to the history of the fortress represent a novelty in Romania.

Very nice restauration and we were lucky to visit in covit restrictions. Under of 50 people inside. Its not for the family with children and more for history purpouse. Lots of chambers with holograms and audio description. So you need over 1h for the visit,

A really nice beautiful mall with everything from grocery stores (auchan) to cheap clothing stores (h&m) to Sephora to jewelry and tech options. The food court is also quite plentiful with good selections. the mall has wifi, which is a plus, and everything is clean and open. The movie theatre is also pretty good.
