Vatra Moldovitei
Moldovița Monastery, a UNESCO World Heritage Site founded in 1402 by Alexander the Good, stands in this tiny Bukovina town in northeastern Romania, set along the Moldovița River between two forested ridges. The wider region holds further UNESCO-listed monasteries, and the long-distance Via Transilvanica trail passes through, making it a base for both heritage and mountain walking.
