If you have already seen the painted monasteries in Voronet or Humor, this church won't surprise or amaze you. It is still a piece of nice Moldavian architecture though. The outside paitings are barely visible, but the inside makes up for it.

Stunning Monastery filled with both rich history and pieces of art. Both domes present a mesmerising natural light-show at any time of the day!

An old medieval monastery, a mirific orthodox cathedral into the citadel of Suceava, known by the holly relics of Saint John the New, a merchant at the Black Sea who has suffered and gave his live for the love of Christ.

Free entrance. It is not as well conservated as the other in the outside. Inside is nice, quiet similar to the others.

Saint John the New Monastery is a Romanian Orthodox monastery. Built between 1514 and 1522, the monastery church is one of eight buildings that make up the churches of Moldavia UNESCO World Heritage Site. Its construction began during the reign of voivode Bogdan III the One-Eyed of Moldavia, after the nearby Mirăuți Church (the metropolitan cathedral of Moldavia at that moment) was devastated in 1513. The construction was completed by Stephen IV of Moldavia (also known as Ștefăniță). The monastery church served as metropolitan cathedral of Moldavia until 1677 and, since 1991, it serves as the cathedral of the Archdiocese of Suceava and Rădăuți.
