Summary:In the city-center of Bucharest, in an atmosphere filled with the sound of the hurried footsteps of passersby, it rises imposing and haughty, though tested several times over the centuries, The Monastery ofRadu Voda, once an important place of worship in the capital city of Alexander II Mircea.
