SECU MONASTERY
Go there and contact
This all-white monastery was built in 1602 by the boyar Nestor Ureche and rebuilt in 1825 after a fire. The Church of St. John the Baptist is distinguished by the addition of Wallachian elements, a style accentuated by 19th-century renovations. At that time, a veranda was also added and the enclosure reinforced. The site has been beautifully renovated, and you'll want to visit all the little monastic cells lining the flower-filled wooden balconies. Good news: you can even sleep in them! The museum exhibits embroidery, religious objects, carpets and old books.
