Today, prepare to be amazed as you uncover the breathtaking Painted Monasteries of Bucovina: Voronet, Moldovita, and Sucevita. These architectural masterpieces of Byzantine art offer a rare glimpse into Romania’s rich history, culture, and spiritual heritage.
Our journey begins at the legendary Voronet Monastery, founded in 1487 and often called the "Sistine Chapel of the East." Stand in awe before its vivid frescoes and the mesmerizing shade of blue known as 'Voronet blue'—a color that has captivated visitors for over 500 years.
Next, we’ll visit the Moldovita Monastery, built by Petru Rares in 1532. Its striking exterior, adorned with gold and deep blue paintings completed in 1537, brings biblical stories and local legends to life in a way you’ll never forget.
Finally, we’ll explore the majestic Sucevita Monastery, a fortress-like complex with towering walls and defensive towers. Once a princely residence, Sucevita now houses a museum filled with extraordinary historical and artistic treasures.
After a day immersed in beauty and history, we’ll head to Piatra Neamt for a relaxing overnight stay, giving you time to reflect on the unforgettable sights you’ve experienced.
Join us on this extraordinary adventure—immerse yourself in Bucovina’s magic and create memories that will last a lifetime.
On the third day, we journey to the legendary land of Transylvania, home to UNESCO World Heritage Sites and breathtaking mountain scenery, including Bicaz Canyon and Red Lake—the largest natural mountain lake in Romania. Bicaz Gorge is truly spectacular, with sheer cliffs rising dramatically from the roadside. Legend has it that Red Lake, also called the “Killer Lake,” was born from the blood of unfortunate picnickers crushed when the mountainside collapsed.
After this awe-inspiring adventure, we head to Brasov. Wander through Rope Street (Strada Sforii), one of the narrowest streets in Europe at just four feet wide. Explore Old Town Hall Square, where beautifully painted and ornately trimmed baroque buildings line the streets, and prepare to be amazed by the Black Church (Biserica Neagra), Romania’s largest Gothic church.
In the evening, we return to Bucharest, hearts full and cameras brimming with unforgettable memories.
