Half day excursion to Snagov Monastery (aprox 40 km from
Bucharest)

Hidden by woods and surrounded by the
waters of the Lake Snagov, the Snagov
Monastery was the most important spiritual and cultural centre of Wallachia
in the feudal period. Built on an ancient place – where the archaeological
finds have discovered clay pots of the Bronze Age and Iron Age, as well Roman
and Byzantine coins – the monastery is one of the oldest monastic settlements
in the vicinity of Bucharest.

Located on an island in the middle of
Snagov Lake, lays the monastery with the same name. Built around the time of
Vlad the Impaler’s grandfather, Mircea the Old, the monastery has become famous
as the burial place of the king of Walachia who would become the inspiration
for Bram Stoker’s Dracula.
