A two-day trip to northern Moldova (Romania, my native and soul country) - part 1

# The Sihastria Monastery

This monastery is located in the northern part of Neamt county, 22 km away from Targu Neamt, on the road leading to Vatra Dornei. Leaving to the right the Neamt monastery, and going to the other monasteries, we’re still running 15 kilometers. Here, the road leaves the main road, passes over Ozana and enters the west, on the Secu river valley. Lovely places to dream ...
