In February 2020, within the partnership with the school from the Anapurna Vidya Sadan Banasthali, Kathmandu - 15, Nepal, my students from grades 3A and 4B studied the Cultural Heritage from Romania, protected by the UNESCO. The information found by my students will be shared with the students from the Nepalese school.
Here are some images from the activity:
The Danube Delta
The waters of
the Danube, which flow into the Black Sea, form the largest and best preserved
of Europe's deltas. The Danube delta hosts over 300 species of birds as well as
45 freshwater fish species in its numerous lakes and marshes.
Churches of
Moldova:
These eight
churches of northern Moldova, built from the late 15th century to the late 16th
century, their external walls covered in fresco paintings, are masterpieces
inspired by Byzantine art. They are authentic and particularly well preserved.
Far from being mere wall decorations, the paintings form a systematic covering
on all the facades and represent complete cycles of religious themes. Their
exceptional composition, the elegance of the characters, and the harmony of the
colors blend perfectly with the surrounding countryside. The interior and
exterior walls of the Church of the Suceviţa Monastery are entirely decorated
with mural paintings of the 16th century, and this church is the only one to
show a representation of the ladder of St John Climacus.
The Monastery
of Horezu
Founded in 1690 by Prince Constantine Brâncovean, the
monastery of Horezu, in Walachia, is a masterpiece of the 'Brâncovean' style.
It is known for its architectural purity and balance, the richness of its
sculptural detail, the treatment of its religious compositions, its votive
portraits and its painted decorative works. The school of mural and icon
painting established at the monastery in the 18th century was famous throughout
the Balkan region.
Villages with
Fortified Churches in Transylvania
These
Transylvanian villages with their fortified churches provide a vivid picture of
the cultural landscape of southern Transylvania. The seven villages inscribed,
founded by the Transylvanian Saxons, are characterized by a specific land-use
system, settlement pattern and organization of the family farmstead that have
been preserved since the late Middle Ages. They are dominated by their
fortified churches, which illustrate building styles from the 13th to the 16th
century.
