Breakfast in the morning.

First, you will be driven to Moldovita Monastery built in 1532, initially built as a monastery for monks and changed after as a convent for nuns. The second monastery will be Sucevita which is the largest of all, looking more like a mighty fortress than a monastery. The monastic place, as the last one to be painted on the exterior walls, boasts the best preserved frescoes of Bucovina. In the end you will visit the most famous painted monastery of all, Voronet Convent also known as “The Sixtine Chapel of the Orient”.
