Description
Sapinta merry cemetery 1 day tour from Oradea
We will pick you up from your hotel in Oradea at 9 AM and then head to Sapinta.
The cemetery’s uniqueness is recognized not only in Romania but also in Europe. It got first place in the top of a funerary monument.
It’s undeniable how special the paintings are and how the colours will truly transfer you into an artistic paradise.
Each grave is marked, not with an austere, cold stone, but with a lively, beautifully carved wooden cross, painted in the radiant blue of heaven and decorated with a painting and an original poem that disclose a little something about the life and character of the plot's eternal inhabitant. Some of the verses are wickedly funny, others are more whimsical. Some are heartbreaking, telling of lives tragically cut short by accidents or illnesses.
Sapanta Blue, the main colour used on the tombstones combines with countless other mixtures of colors. There are poems written on the wooden oak crosses and drawings with scenes of the deceased life on the upper side of every cross.
The verses are generally written in the first person, and as you read them, you almost get the feeling that you're having a little conversation with the other side.
Restaurants situated in the proximity of the cemetery offers you a traditional meal.
There are also a lot of boutiques where you can buy souvenirs which are specific for this zone.
Afternoon we return back in Oradea.
