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.

It is the only museum in the country with a theme about life in the terrestrial waters, seas and oceans of the world. *Muzeul Apelor Mihai Bacescu din Falticeni este singurul muzeu din ţară cu o tematică despre viaţa din apele terestre, din mările şi oceanele lumii.

My children are 3 and 1 years old. They were impressed by the fish tanks, the seashells and the stuffed animals. I think it was a fun time even if we visited the museum în less than an hour.

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.

This painted nun monastery is often referred to as the "Sistine Chapel of the East."
Reviewed By L575OHjimh - Regina, Canada
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.
