    Hiking

    The Orthodox Church in Băile Tușnad, adorned with paintings both inside and outside, is a copy of the beautiful Voroneț monastery, or, as the parish priest Constantin Gane calls it, “Voronețul Ardelean”.

    The architectural style is the Byzantine one, in the shape of a cross (trefoil) with three apses, one central, the altar, and two lateral ones, pews, and the central dome being supported on a reinforced concrete pendant. The porch is executed in Brancovenesc style, open, with columns made of solid stone artistically carved in the shape of a woven rope.

    Hiking

    The Orthodox Church in Băile Tuşnad, which was intended to be a miniaturized copy of the architectural ensemble of the Reunification Cathedral in Alba Julia, has become an architectural jewel similar to the famous Voivodeship Foundation thanks to the fresco that decorates it in its entirety.
    The Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary in Băile Tuşnad was built at great expense in the interwar period in an area steeped in history.
