The pass is located at 1201m, between Măgura Calului peak(1229m) Piatra Fântânele mountain(1067m). This road has been built first between 1812-1817 at the initiative of the Council of War of the Austro-Hungarian Army. In 1969 the road was first paved and afterwards asphalted. Usually the traffic on the road is quite crowded, you might get stuck behind trucks on the way, but fortunately there aren’t many villages on the course of the road, so the crusing speed is acceptable. The road conditions are very good, the asphalt being in optimal shape. The road is twisty, having many wide curves that will put a smile on your face. Make sure you don’t get caugh up in the moment and forget to stop and admire the beautiful views.

Ciocanesti

A village in Northern Romania is one of the most colorful destinations in Europe, according to famous travel guide Lonely Planet.In a feature story called Places that pop: 10 of Europe's most colourful destinations, Lonely Planet writer Tamara Sheward has complied a list of “vibrant villages, technicolour towns and dazzling districts” tourists should visit, and the Ciocanesti commune in Suceava county, Northern Romania, is on it.“Carpathian Mountains. The very name conjures up images of vampires, werewolves and bewitched forests. But in the historic Bucovina region, Ciocanesti busts every spooky cliché: after all, what could be less terrifying than an entire village painted like Easter eggs?,” reads the presentation.

Humor Monastery

In order to understand how important religion has been for our people, you have to take a tour of Romania and see the sheer number of houses of worship that have been built, but also destroyed by enemies over the course of history.Striving to protect their spiritual treasures, people erected churches away from the eyes of the world, some of them hidden in the depths of the woods, others nestled within rock caves at high altitudes. Humor Monastery, which was built approximately 500 years ago, is an example of a fortified monastery that has managed to endure over the centuries.After the first church that stood here, built around 1400, was destroyed, the second one, built in 1530 with thick river rock walls, was meant to be a place of worship that would withstand the test of time.

Sucevita Monastery

Sucevita and Voronet are two of THE MOST BEAUTIFUL ROMANIAN MONASTERIES, part of the international cultural and spiritual patrimony, which is why they should be included in any trip to Romania and northern Moldavia.Even if you have not read the Bible, or the Book of Books, the biblical scenes and icons painted on the walls of the Sucevita Monastery will give you a stunning and vivid visual support in understanding the history of Christianity.The fortified church is like an open book for anyone who enters its doors, and only once you see it in person will you truly understand why it was included on the UNESCO World Heritage list of cultural landmarks.
