#paintedchurches

Bucovina painted churches. Voronet, Suceavita and Humorului. A friend, Orthodox, explained the reason for the paintings: the churches were too small and so only the nobles could attend the service inside the church. The commoners had to stay outside and attend the mass. The images would help them follow the words and stories of the Saints. I find it a beautiful explanation, and the churches are dazzling. #travel_easyrider #earthescope #bucovina #paintedchurches #travelblogger (at Bucovina)

One of my most favorite things about Fayette County are the painted churches. They are absolutely beautiful. Check them out by Googling painted churches. They are open, except one, and you can go in and explore yourself and get completely lost in the Holy Spirit while you're there. #fayettecountytexas #paintedchurches #mostbeautifulchurchesiveeverseen #holyspiritiswithyou #visitfayettecounty
