Remnants of ancient baths in Gadara, Israel.

While the first Roman bathing complex was constructed on these thermal springs during the pagan period, two more were erected already after the Christianization and survived even for some time after the Muslim conquest.

Modern Moldavia has always been a place where Moldavian (and Romanian in general) and Russian cultures met, which, of course, could not but be reflected in the local architecture.

Interesting in this regard is the church of St. George in Ocniţa - its construction in neo-Russian style began before the revolution, but for obvious reasons was not finished. The church was completed in the Neo-Moldavian style by Romanian craftsmen, which created a very interesting look - emphasized also during the restoration of the church in our time after the Soviet years, with frescoes in a style closer to Romania and a Neo-Russian iconostasis.

An old photo of the centre of Bulgarian Gabrovo, which at that time resembled a town in central Europe. Alas, most of the buildings in the photo, except for the tower, have not survived to this day.
