Romania: Updates & Travel

Travel in Romania?

  • Perhaps the most beautiful country in the former Eastern Bloc, but economically somewhat backward. Many Turkish, Byzantine and Roman influences, many campsites and cheap hotels, the beaches on the Black Sea, skiing in the Carpathians, the monastery Sin Moldavia, the Danube Delta: a nature reserve of 4,500 square kilometers with its pelican population and the healing mud baths in Eforie.
  • Visit one of the thermal springs, the salt water or the mud baths at the Techirghiol lake. Spas can also be found in other places in Romania.
  • Go hiking in the Carpathians. In the winter you can also ski and snowboard here.
  • There are several fantastic seaside resorts on the Black Sea such as Costinesti, Jupiter and Aurora.
  • Visit Bran Castle, where Vlad the Impaler (better known as Count Dracula) lived. Bram Stoker based the book Dracula on him.
  • Visit one of the more than 10,000 caves, such as the one in the Apuseni.
  • Bucharest was once nicknamed Little Paris, but unfortunately large parts of the city were destroyed in various wars. However, there are still a few beautiful streets left and the Ceausescu Palace is also impressive. It is the second largest building in the world after the Pentagon. The nightlife in Bucharest is booming.
  • The port city of Constanta was founded in the sixth century BC. You can see the influences of both the Greek and the Byzantine empires.
  • The city of Sibiu is still almost completely intact with city walls and brightly colored houses.
  • In Sighisoara you can walk around in the Middle Ages. Incidentally, Count Dracula was also born here.
