Sinaia, Romania

In the late 1600s, a Romanian aristocrat made a pilgrimage to the Holy Land that included a visit to St. Catherine's monastery at the foot of Mt. Sinai. When he returned, he built his own monastery and named it Sinaia after the holy mountain. One of the first buildings to take form was the Old Church. [2014]
