The Voronet Monastery is one of the most important tourist attractions located in the town of Gura Humorului, Moldavia.This beautiful monasteryIt was declared World Heritage by UNESCO despite the construction suffered few alternations along the years. Tourist could see there many frescoes featuring an intense shade of blue commonly known as ‘Voronet blue.’ The composition of this unique paint continues to remain a mystery even now, more than 500 years after the church was built.

An amazing place to visit with the restored paintings a delight to behold. The rich interior cannot be photographed but the gift store has good publications and cards to buy. Remember that a dress code applies.
The only place in the world where you can find this specific nuance of blue, which is why it is called "Voroneț Blue"
Nice UNESCO monument ... pretty colors, nice location, nice architecture! Very accessible form the main road!Important historic attraction!
One of the best preserved painted monastery, near Gura Humorului , in the middle of a village of different kind of accomodation, known for its beautiful blue background named the"Voronet Blue" . Between the parking and the monastery entrance a lot of shops selling a lot of local products, recommending "Trandafiri" (roses) confiture.
Love the little shops by the parking area, the painting is really something neat. Lots of little trinkets for the kids
I had a short trip in the spring of 2014 in the region, at Iasi, but I took the time to visit this old and beautiful monastery. Amazing experience, i would come back gladly.
One of many similar Monasteries. You can visit them during "Monastery Tours" widely sold in many Cities in North Romania (e.g. Suceava). The best way to do that is to rent a car and see them on your own. Why they are worth seeing?- amazing paintings, kind of an architectural signature of these small churches/monasteries. They are not big enough to hold the whole village inside so people outside are able to see paintings and be part of whole ceremony.- great gardens, very well organized, most of them are state of art when it comes to landscape architecture -some of the monasteries are selling their food products and offering rooms to spend a night, it is always unforgettable experience-you can see an orthodox monk and talk with them, they are usually quite well educated and know few languages- these are part of great Romanian Cultural Heritage and absolutely must see
This is the beautiful monastery in Romania.They have the old picture on the wals.The place is beautiful and peacfull,and perfect for your heart,
