Biserica Mănăstirii "Stavropoleos", Romanian Orthodox church in central Bucharest, Romania.
The Stavropoleos Monastery Church exhibits Brancovenesc architectural style with stone carvings, frescoes, and ornate decorations throughout its structure.
Founded in 1724 by Greek archimandrite Ioanichie, the church was built alongside an inn during the reign of Nicolae Mavrocordat.
The monastery maintains a collection of ancient religious manuscripts, texts, and liturgical objects representing Romanian Orthodox traditions.

Romania encompasses historic towns where medieval squares, Orthodox churches, and royal palaces are found. Bucharest, the capital, hosts the Parliament Palace and religious buildings like the 18th-century Stavropoleos Church. In Transylvania, Brașov preserves its 14th-century city walls, and Sibiu features its cobbled streets lined with old houses. Further north, Bukovina contains Orthodox monasteries adorned with Renaissance exterior frescoes. The Romanian territory also offers mountain landscapes and diverse natural sites. The Transfăgărășan road crosses the Carpathians at over 2000 meters altitude, linking two historic regions. Bran Castle and Peles Castle, perched in the mountains, showcase defensive and royal architecture. The saline lakes of Ocna Sibiului and thermal centers like Therme București highlight the country's natural resources. The Danube Delta completes this collection of destinations to explore.
