This document provides information about the village of Ciocanesti in Romania. It was presented by Cristina Dumitrescu, Andreea Simion, and Felicia Sandu from the Faculty of Agronomic Sciences and Veterinary Medicine in Bucharest. Ciocanesti is located in the Bistrita valley on the road connecting Romania and Moldova, near Vatra Dornei. It is one of the few Romanian villages that has maintained its architectural harmony over time, with traditionally painted houses and floral designs on the walls not found elsewhere in the country. The name comes from the village's history of making weapons and armor for voievozi opposing Moldova. Legend says Stefan the Great
