Maramureș, in the far north, keeps a village world of wooden churches, carved gates and old customs.
The wooden churches of Maramureș, with tall thin spires, are on the UNESCO list; Bârsana and Surdești are among the tallest. Houses have great carved wooden gates. At Săpânța, the Merry Cemetery has crosses painted blue with pictures and funny poems about the dead. The Mocănița, a steam train, still runs into the Vaser valley.
