Dolhasca
Despite being a town, Dolhasca looks like a rural settlement in many aspects, and the main occupation of the inhabitants is agriculture. The Probota Monastery, built in 1530 by the Moldavian ruler Petru Rareș, and located close to the town, is one of the Churches of Moldavia UNESCO World Heritage Site. Among Dolhasca's notable natives are comedian Alexandru Arșinel and neurosurgeon Constantin N. Arseni.
In 2002, Dolhasca had a population of 11,009 inhabitants, 90% of which were Romanians and the rest Roma. At that time, it was one of the most populated rural localities in Suceava County.
