Traditional Romanian Culture for Kids in Bucharest, 10 of 10: Lake Snagov and Snagov Monastery



Lake Snagov stretches 16 km through what is left of the old Vlăsia forests, with oak, lime and ash woods along the shore.
A footbridge leads to the island monastery, first recorded in 1408, whose 16th-century church holds a tombstone attributed to Vlad the Impaler (a 1933 dig found no remains). On the water there are rowboats, pedal boats, motorboats and small passenger boats.
