Tourist attractions in the town and surrounding areas:
Seat Fortress of Suceava - a medieval fortress, located on a spur of a plateau situated at a height of 70 m from the meadow of the Suceava River, from where one can see the entire valley of Suceava. The fortress was built by Petru I Musat at the end of the fourteenth century for defense purposes, and then fortified by Stefan cel Mare in the fifteenth century.
The St. John the New Monastery is an Orthodox monastery in Romania, built from 1514 to 1522 in the city of Suceava. The monastery church has the patronage of St. George and St. John the New. Here are the relics of St. John the New, brought in 1589 from the Mirauti Church.
The Voronet Monastery is located in the village of the same name, 36 km away from Suceava and only 4 km from downtown Gura Humorului. It is one of the most valuable foundations of Stefan cel Mare. The church was built in 1488 in only four and a half months, which is a record for that time. The Voronet blue is considered by specialists as unique in the world, and it is known as "Rubens's red".
The Putna Monastery is an Orthodox monastic sanctuary, one of the most important Romanian cultural, religious and artistic centres. The monastery is 67 km away from Suceava and 33 km away from the city of Radauti.

Experiences of patients
My husband and I have always travelled all over the Czech Republic. I was afraid that my dialysis would put an end to that and we would have to stay at home. Thankfully, it hasn’t been that way and because of holiday dialysis we keep taking trips.
