Description of Tour Locations
Село Молдовиця, православний монастир Молдовіца
Молдовица (рум. Moldovița) — село у повіті Сучава в Румунії. Адміністративний центр комуни Молдовіца. Село розташоване на відстані 363 км на північ від Бухареста, 53 км на захід від Сучави. Монастир Молдовіца датується 1532-им роком. Його оточують стіни, 1.20 м. завширшки та 5 м. заввишки. Він унікальний завдяки декільком іконографічним цінностям, стилю опису і переважаючим червоно-коричневим колірним відтінкам. Монументальний малюнок про падіння Константинополя змальований сильними відтінками червоного, синього, жовтого та коричневого. Всередині церкви зберігаються меблі з XVI-го ст., в тому числі крісло воєводи Петра Рареша.
Вузькоколійка “Моканіца Гуцулка Молдовіца”
З села Модовіца до с. Палтин курсує справжня Карпатська вузькоколійка “Моканіца”. Для руху локомотиву використовується вугілля і коли їдеш таким потягом відчуваєш, ніби потрапив у кінець 19 століття. З вікон вагончиків можна помилуватись чудовими краєвидами Буковинських Карпат. Колія прямує спочатку через село, а потім – вздовж долини річки Молдовіца до села Палтин. Тут передбачена 40 хвилинна зупинка на обід. Вам запропонують традиційні буковинські гарячі страви: мамагила з бринзою, мічі, дичина, голубці, марітурі, десерт та глінтвейн. В зимовий час вагончики опалюються маленькими “буржуйками” на дровах. Довжина маршруту – 18 км. в один бік, тривалість подорожі – 2,5 години.
