MONASTERY CĂLDĂRUȘANI
Near Snagov, on the shores of Lake Căldărușani, this monastery was built by Prince Matei Basarab in the 17th century. It notably housed music and painting schools, where Nicolae Grigorescu, the famous Romanian painter, studied between 1854 and 1855. Inside, the collection of religious objects includes icons from the 18th century and others painted by Grigorescu. Access is difficult without a car. From Bucharest, take the Ploiești road, turn right at Balotești and then left towards Lipia; from Snagov, follow road 101C past Lipia.
