The wooden churches of Maramures
I have come here in search of two examples of wooden churches that are a highlight in this region of Romania, but the first building I see down the road baffles me. It is a rather impressive white church with two side bell towers topped by very steep roofs. It’s all white, including the roofs and it stands out in the gloomy morning air under a cloudy sky. Only after a while do I convince myself this isn’t the church I was looking for, renovated, so I walk further on.
