CASTLES AND FORTRESSES
• Romania’s collection of castles and fortresses best illustrates the rich mediaeval heritage of the country.
• The most popular include the 14th century Corvineşti Castle, the elegant 19th century Peleş Castle with its 160 rooms filled with priceless European art and, of course, the Bran Castle, built in the mid-1300s and the legendary home of Bram Stoker’s Count Dracula.

THE MEDIAEVAL CITIES
Central Romania encompasses what is popularly known as Transylvania –a place that immediately brings to mind the legend of Count Dracula.
While the legend is certainly intriguing and a genuine tourist attraction, the region has much more to offer. Some of Europe’s best-preserved medieval towns, most notably Sighişoara, Braşov and Sibiu, are located here.
• Among the most picturesque treasures of Romania are the Painted Monasteries of Bucovina (in northeastern Romania). Their painted exterior walls are decorated with elaborate 15th and 16th century frescoes.
• The best-preserved are the monasteries in Humor, Moldovita, Patrauti, Probota, Suceava, Sucevita, and Voronet.

• The rich and tasty food in Romania is an influence of foreign settlers that have occupied the land in the past, nations such as Greeks, Hungarians, Germans and Turks. These past influences have allowed Romania to create its own unique gastronomy.
• Pork is the favourite main dish among most Romanians but you will also find great beef, lamb and chicken dishes. Savouring fish dishes are typical of the Danube Delta.
• Most meals are complemented by soup which is a national specialty in Romania. Also a variety of delicious cakes can be found on special events and holidays.
