Amazing, but it is not easy to get access
The anciest monastry built by Stefan Cel Mare. Amazing frescoes inside the building. It is quite demanding to get access: on sundays, you must wait the end of the celebration in the church on the opposite side of the street, and you must ask to them to open the church. Indeed, it is currently under restoration.

Small moldavian architecture painted church
An amazing small painted church with the interior still well preserved. It is not as popular as Voroneț or Sucevița, but it is more intimate with personal attention from the priest (fleabag friendly). Light shines thru the windows and brightens special parts of the church at Easter and Christmas, like in Stonehenge. Brilliant frescoes
