Originally built in the 14th century and later restored by Vlad the Impaler himself, the monastery is one of the oldest and most important monastic sites in southern Romania. Located on a peaceful island in the middle of Snagov Lake, the church preserves original frescoes, medieval architectural elements, and a unique atmosphere surrounded by legends and stories about the Wallachian ruler.
