Romania offers a different culture from what you’ll find elsewhere in Europe, with some of the most stunning mountain scenery on the continent, and countryside which seems untouched by modern history. For adventurous travelers, the fortified castles, charming medieval villages and colorful monasteries hidden away in forests make up for the cities lingerings from the country’s communist past.
A journey of a few hours by car or train can take you from the Danube River to a string of beautiful, intact, medieval towns in Transylvania; from Bucharest – Romania’s post-Communist capital city – to the Black Sea; from Southern Transylvania to Bucovina or Maramures. Take a step back in time as you visit one of the world’s famous painted monasteries in Bucovina, the ancient, hilltop citadel in Sighisoara or an authentic, centuries-old, folkloric village in Maramures.
Rugged, natural beauty, the hospitality of local people, folklore festivals and the flavors of regional cuisine combine to leave you with memories to last a lifetime.
