Stavropoleos Monastery

This was formerly an Eastern Orthodox monastery for nuns in central Bucherest , Romania. It was built in 1724 in the Brancovenesc style & was dedicated to the Archangels Michael & Gabriel . I found it quite beautiful & very different from the more modern buildings which surround it.
