St George Monastery, Suruceni · Mănăstirea Sfântul Gheorghe · Suruceni
Convent at Suruceni, renewed, with a garden and welcoming nuns
A service and a walk through the convent garden, less than an hour from the city
Worth it as a quiet stop close to the city, with the best rating of any monastery in the catalogue. One visitor says the nuns are there if you need to talk.
Convent at Suruceni, south-west of Chișinău, open at all hours. It is the highest-rated monastery in the catalogue, and the reviews explain why without going into history. One visitor calls it one of the most beautiful monasteries in Moldova and says it is entirely renewed, that the nuns are friendly and very humble, and that they loved both the atmosphere and the liturgy. The garden is mentioned separately as beautiful and the parking as large.
