THE TOUR OF THE MONASTERIES AND CHURCHES FROM THE SNAGOV AREA

Presentation of the area:A_01=Manastirea_Tiganesti=050619=07-m_1.jpg
The Snagov area - the green jewel of Bucharest(as Budapest has the BalatonLake and Paris has Bois de Boulogne). A large base of reference points, archaeological remains, historical, cultural, social and mundane events (potential which could be valued with assistance from the EU).

Route presentation:
A bus trip around the Bucharest surroundings, together with the guide comments, having as major objectives 3 very different old monasteries:: the first is a nuns' monastery, the second is isolated on an island (a Father Superior place), and the third is a monks' monastery; all three are located at less than 40 km from Bucharest, in very picturesque and strategic sites (on the banks of some lakes and on islands, with forests nearby - locations which in the past have been very carefully selected by the founders: isolated, well defended and relying on local resources which could provide great autonomy).
