โจA city loaded with history and culture, Suceava was the throne of the Medieval Principality of Moldavia until 1565. You can step inside the churches where the princes were crowned and see the unconquerable fortress they built to repel the Ottomans.
๐Letโs explore the best things to do in Suceava:
๐๐ผ๐ฟ๐๐ฟ๐ฒ๐๐ ๐ข๐ณ ๐ฆ๐๐ฐ๐ฒ๐ฎ๐๐ฎ
One of the many in the line of fortresses was built all over Moldavia when the threat from the Ottoman Empire grew large in the 14th century.
๐ฃ๐ฎ๐ถ๐ป๐๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐ ๐ผ๐ป๐ฎ๐๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ถ๐ฒ๐ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐๐๐ฐ๐ผ๐๐ถ๐ป๐ฎ
A group of Romanian cultural treasures is scattered across Suceava County. Most require a drive, but none are more than 60 kilometers away. What they all share is spellbinding Byzantine architecture and outside walls that are painted with murals that have kept their vitality since the 16th century.
But if you have to pick just one it has to be Voronet Monastery, 30 kilometers to the southwest. The paintings at this monastery are still vivid and evoke scenes like the Last Judgment and the Ladder of St John, produced in 1547.

Established by the Museum of Bukovina, the cityโs planetarium is now operated by the university and is somewhere to bring young astronomers on rainy days. The main hall has Zeiss ZKP top projector that can show 6,000 stars and has side projectors that can illustrate moving objects like Galileo satellites, the Donati Comet and shooting stars.
โน๏ธVisiting these objectives will require prior verification in order to fit the need for our wheelchair user friends. Most of them are suitable for seniors and slow walkers.
We are here to help!

One of the oldest settlements in ๐น๐ฉRomania, known in ancient time as Apulum, Alba Iulia served as the largest military and economic center during the Roman occupation. Temples, mosaics, thermae and statues, amphitheaters, the governor's palace "Daciarum Trium" โ all rendered the original Dacian Apulul as the miniature copy of the mother Rome.
From these amazing sights suitable for visiting to seniors, slow walkers and wheelchair users, we recommend:

โ๐ง๐ต๐ฒ ๐จ๐ป๐ถ๐ผ๐ป ๐๐ฎ๐น๐น - part of the National Museum and was built between 1898 and 1900. It is the building where The Great National Assembly voted for the Union of Transylvania with Romania.

On our way to Transylvania - a melting pot of cultural and historical heritages (Romanian, German and Hungarian at least) โ we make a stop to see the beautiful ๐ฃ๐ฒ๐น๐ฒ๐ ๐๐ฎ๐๐๐น๐ฒ.
โจItโs no secret Peles Castle is the gem of Sinaia. Its surroundings are breathtaking โ lies in the foothills of the spectacular Bucegi Mountains. The gardens are a marvel.

โจVisiting Peles indoors is suitable for slow walkers and senior tourists. The ground floor is also accessible to our friends with a need for a wheelchair.
