The Monastery of Barsana

Nestled in the verdant green hills of Maramures is the Barsana Monastery. This beautiful Romanian monastery complex is quite new, having all been built since 1990. The famous skill in woodworking of the craftsmen of Maramures is very evident in the wooden buildings of Barsana. These photos were taken on a cloudy September 11th during our second Romania trip in 2007.

This is the true Romania that you`ll never find in newspapers, or TV.

Am vrut sa fac si eu un video cu Barsana, vad ca fotografiile sunt de ceva ani. Acum multe corpuri sunt restaurate, si au aparut unele noi. Frumos !
