The official name of these outside painted is Churches of Moldavia on the UNESCO site. Bucovina region is an Austrian construction over the Moldavian Land and it was born in 1774, when most of these churches were 300 years old. :)

@@JetLagWarriors By the way, you wrote in the video that it was "100 lei / $124" ... that's not exactly the exchange rate :) Funny typo though

[@octaviangiuroescu5165]

Normally, the traditional blouse all around Romania is completely white, the yellow colour is not in the picture at all! The differences between the regions is in the embroidery but all are white! Keep in mind for the next time. And about 100 bucks for that blouse is a fair price taking in the account that is made entirely manual!

[@RaduRadonys]

@@octaviangiuroescu5165 It was 100 lei which is 25 USD, so it was not manual. The manual ones they showed were 800 lei or 200 USD which is very very expensive, I wouldn't pay 200 USD on any clothing, no matter what.

[@sarahfoo4359]

Highlights in this video for me 1. The paintings on the wall of the monastery! How amazing to have them last this long!!! 2. The herd of cows on the road because they're just too cute! 3. The scenic country side drive with beautiful views on the way to Veronica's guesthouse. 4. Steve taking 2nd looks at his sheep cousins. Some bonds can never be broken🤣 Nice purchase Ivana.

So sad the Covid situation is getting bad in Romania, but there's still tons of stuff you can visit, just avoid big cities, most of them are now in the Red zone and will require a certificate to enter most places. But small towns and villages are safe. Lots of stuff to see in the Maramures region.

Wonderful ! But such a short video for a large area full of staff to visit. Hope next year you will discover more in Bucovina region, and yes the Christmas time there is unique! So many traditions, customs, food, you wouldn't fill in 10 vlogs of 20 min :)) I bet that these bucovina and maramures vlogs will have many views, wait and see. Already Iasi vlog, which isn't the best i seen you can do has quite some views. To bad you did film the palace of culture in the night-time, absolutely 10x more beautiful then on day. We will wait for you next year. Also maybe we can somehow get to you a personalized Rapid shirt, with your number and name on the back, it can be done. Have a lovely trip, you are amazing, there isn't a channel of travelers that ever presented so many vlogs about Romania, most of them go to big cities and mostly only in Transylvania and Bucharest, boring. Your interactions with people from villages are unique, and that makes this vlog so watched. Take care!

Yes, the Romanian "ie" is always expensive, mostly because it's handmade. Lots of hours of labour are put into it. If you are lucky to find cheaper ones, go for it but be careful as they might be fakes. I went to Voroneț like 3 years ago. Great area, very beautiful.

The "Blue of Voroneț" is also a protected UNESCO Heritage, just a color... It's unique in the world, no one was ever able to replicate it. So if they were to refurbish the monastery, they would loose that, but UNESCO won't let them 😛. I am extremely glad you got to experience that! Cheers to Stephen the Great!

[@lexaz4532]

🇷🇴 “Bihor, not Dior”😉 Romanian folk motifs are a way of expression for the person who wore them. Romanian "Iils/iile" show the area where they come from, the social, material, spiritual status, age or occupation of that person.

[@dracowar6]

About the cows you see all around rural Romania. Those are almost always the cows from the whole village. Each household will have 1-3 cows, and they all leave their homes in the morning and gather in one spot. From there the village herdsman will keep watch and move them around the fields until evening. Then when it starts to get dark each cow will leave by it'sself to their own house. But, in most villages you'll also have at least a couple of proper milk farms with 20-100 Holstein cows (the ones that look like the Milka cow, but black). Those have their own fields, and don't wonder through traffic. We joke that the Romanian breed of cows are "Milk-Cheese-Meat-Eggs" cows. Because in the west they made specific breeds for meat or for milk, (or in case of the chickens for eggs). But in Romania the "Great Leader" said that's wasteful and un-socialistic. So the Romanian breeds were made to have both good milk production and meat. Whilte they aren't great for either, they are good enough.

[@gerardfernon3339]

Some people here have been calling the Voroneț monastery church the Sistine Chapel of Romania. I think it would be better to compare it to the Papal Basilica of San Francesco (Saint Francis) in Assisi. Although the basilica is 200 or more years older than Voroneț its inner walls and ceilings are also absolutely covered in frescoes with liberal use of the blue paint as well. Stunning, with the UNESCO designations that Voroneț was also given. You can see the similarities if you google 'basilica San Francesco Assisi" and look at the google images and there are some youtubes too.
