Flowers all the way at the Hincu Monastery

Flowers, flowers, flowers all the way. We are sure you will be able to appreciate the tenderness of thousands of flowers planted around the Hincu Monastery. You will also get a flash of reviving energy out of the miraculous water, running in the 3 life-giving and soul purifying water springs situated within the territory of the old monastic complex. At the same time, you can watch the every-day life of the nuns that decided to dedicate their lives to this saint place situated in the heart of Codru (old oak forest typical for Moldova).
