Romania is a country in southeastern Europe known for the forested region of Transylvania, the imposing Carpathian Mountains, its medieval fortified churches and a fascinating history. From the vibrant capital, Bucharest, to rural towns where time seems to have stood still, Romania offers a journey through a unique Latin culture in a Slavic sea.
Rated one of the most spectacular roads in the world, the Transfăgărășan winds through the Carpathian Mountains, offering dizzying views, hairpin bends and stunning alpine landscapes. Built for military reasons, today it is an unforgettable adventure for any driver (open only in summer).
Visit Bran Castle, perched on a rock on the border of Transylvania and Wallachia. Although its connection to Vlad the Impaler is tenuous, its imposing silhouette, its towers and its secret passages perfectly embody the legend of Dracula created by Bram Stoker.
In the village of Săpânța, in Maramureș, there is a cemetery unique in the world. Each grave is marked by a brightly colored wooden cross, with a poetic and often humorous epitaph recounting the life and circumstances of death of the buried person. It is a moving celebration of life.
Visiting the monasteries of Bucovina (such as Voroneț, Moldovița or Sucevița) is like reading an illustrated Bible on the outside walls. Its impressive frescoes, painted in the 15th and 16th centuries to teach illiterate peasants, have survived the elements and are a World Heritage Site.
Stroll through the cobblestone streets of Sighișoara, the best preserved inhabited medieval citadel in Europe. Climbing its Clock Tower, exploring its colorful houses and visiting the house where Vlad the Impaler is said to have been born is a true journey through time.
The Romanian Carpathians are home to the largest population of brown bears in Europe. Taking a guided excursion to an observatory in the Transylvanian forests at sunset offers a high chance of seeing these majestic animals in their natural environment. It is an exciting and respectful experience.

Ver guía completaThe official currency is the Romanian Leu (RON). Although Romania is a member of the EU, it does not use the euro. Card payment is widespread in cities, but it is essential to carry cash for rural areas.
Trains are a good option for covering long distances between major cities, although they can be slow. Buses and minibuses ('maxitaxi') are more efficient for shorter routes. Renting a car is the best option for flexibility and exploring remote areas, but road quality can be variable.
The official language is Romanian, a Romance language. English is increasingly common among young people and in the tourism sector. Hungarian and German are also spoken in some areas of Transylvania.
