With a haunting history of tales and ruthless rulers, Romania is one of the most unique destinations in Europe. The stunning mountain scenery is pleasant to the eye, as well as rural areas that are untouched by modernity. Although the country is still under political uncertainty, it is worth exploring for the more adventurous. Eerie castles, gloomy old monasteries, and medieval villages are hidden in forest groves. Tour sites relating to Count Dracula, walk Black Sea beaches and learn about local folklore to excite your spooky side.
There are many castles and medieval towns to learn about and see in Romania. Visit Bran Castles, Peles Castle, Castlelul Corvinilor, and the Black Church, just to name a few.
Unlike most rural towns today, Romania’s countryside is untouched by modern technology. Spend quiet time in the famous Transylvania, or tour the UNESCO World Heritage Sites found in Maramures and Bukovina.
A unique fact about Romania is that most citizens don’t have cars. However, they have a terrific transportation system of train routes, light rail, and buses.
