Foltea Wooden Statues

When you go up the hill Cindel you will arrive in a strange place called Poiana Soarelui. It is a large open field, a pasture at the top of the hill where you can see lots of wooden statues. Soarelui Poiana name means sunny meadow, and everywhere you see the statues, which have different shapes, and look very old. It is a country road which you have to climb either on foot or by car. With a normal car it can be a little tricky especially if it is raining. Some of the sculptures depict characters, the others are not anything in particular, but they are still works of art. I think that they were made by the monks of the monastery of Foltea, located downstairs.
