The first image of this village in
Bukovina region will certainly
remain etched in memory due to is
the colorful houses painted with
motifs inspired by the traditional
costumes. It’s like all these motives
that were made popular on
peasant shirts and on painted eggs
would be placed on the walls of
buildings. Hence, the names of
“painted” houses as the locals call
them.

Locals maintain the
tradition of decorating
the outside of houses
with traditional
designs, as they
learned from parents
and grandparents.
Even the Post Office,
the Town Hall or the
shop buildings keep
this habit.

The patterns from the painted
eggs are kept from generation to
generation, they are very old
patterns and each has a
meaning. Thus, he diamond is a
symbol of wisdom, the square is
the symbol of intelligence,
circles symbolize infinity and
eternity, the net or the sieve is
separating right from wrong, the
human wisdom used to choose
between right and wrong
