  • Manastirea Voronet, Voronet, Romania
    Voronet Monastery was built in 1488 in record time: three months, three weeks and three days, today being part of the UNESCO heritage. The exterior murals have preserved their hues despite centuries of inclement weather, but the ingredients used in preparing the paints are still a mystery. The scenes in the murals depict, like a movie, the history of Christianity, presented in an original manner, very much influenced by folk beliefs, by the Eastern culture, but also by the Orthodox thought.
    60 minutes
  • Moldovita Monastery, Vatra Moldovitei, Romania
    Moldovita Monastery, included in the UNESCO heritage in 1993, was built between 1532 and 1537. For hundreds of years, the murals were the only way uneducated country dwellers could learn about the teachings of the Bible. The frescoes are an immense color illustration of Biblical scenes, adapted to the history of the place and to the important moments in the life of the community.
    60 minutes
  • Sucevita Monastery, Sucevita, Romania
    Sucevita Monastery is the newest of the Painted Monasteries of Bukovina, and it was included in the UNESCO Heritage in 1993. It was built in a Moldavian style, with Gothic and Byzantine influences. The murals are dominated by a shade of green, obtained through an ancient technique from natural pigments.

We had a wonderful day and a great experience seeing the unique painted monasteries. George was our guide, and we couldn't have dreamed of a better person to show and tell us all of the important and interesting information regarding not only the monasteries, but also Bucovina and Romania as a whole. George was very professional, passionate and able to explain the details about the paintings in a very clear. He made us feel very comfortable, checked frequently on our needs, drove well and responsibly- a great guide and a great guy. It was the best day of our stay at Romania, and we will surely remember it for the beautiful landscapes of Bucovina and mystic atmosphere of the monasteries.

The main reason for my recent trip to Romania was to view the religious srt in the Orthodox and Byzantine churches and monasteries in Bucharest and in Bucovina, located in northeastern Romania. The highlight of my trip to Romania was the visit to the UNESCO Painted Monasteries of Bucovina. These incredible Byzantine monasteries are worthy of a trip to Romania. I was very fortunate to have Mihai as my private driver and guide. Mihai is very pleasant and a very responsible driver, and a great conversationalist. I learned a lot about the fascinating history of Moldavia from Mihai. We visited the 3 most important and best preserved painted monasteries of Bucovina: Voronet, Moldovita and Sucevita, and we spent about 1 hour in each. Each one of these monasteries is a treasure. Mihai explained to me in detail the meaning of each fresco painted outside and inside each monastery. To summarize, this was an unforgettable day in my life, and I highly recommend doing this private day trip to every visitor coming to Romania.

The main reason for my recent trip ro Romania was to visit the incredible Byzantine monasteries in this country. The UNESCO monasteries of Bucovina are worth the trip to Romania. I was very fortunate to have Mihai as my private driver and guide. He is a very pleasant and responsible driver, and a great conversationalist. I learned a lot about the fascinating history of the region of Moldavia from Mihai. We visited the 3 most important painted monasteries of Bucovina: Voronet, Moldovita and Suceavita, each one is a treasure on itself. We spent about 1 hour in each, and Mihai explained to me in detail the meaning of each fresco. This is a trip that I highly recommend to every visitor coming to Romania. I will never forget this fabulous day.
