Explore Romania, a hidden gem for travelers

Explore Romania, a hidden gem for travelers Tired of the same old tourist attractions? Romania is undoubtedly a dream destination for off-the-beaten-path travelers. Stepping onto this land is like opening a mystery box full of surprises. The capital, Bucharest, houses the second largest building in Europe, the Palace of the Parliament. This massive structure, built with marble, crystal, and gold, exudes a sense of grandeur and reflects the former glory. In the nearby Old Town, vintage trams rumble through the streets, past graffiti-covered walls and centuries-old cafes, seamlessly blending art and everyday life. Heading north, Bran Castle stands tall. It's not just the setting of the vampire legend, but also a castle with ivy-covered walls and mysterious passages, whispering stories of the former nobility. Nearby Brasov, with its red-roofed wooden houses and Gothic churches, is a charming town with an open-air music concert in the central square, filling the city with a joyful rhythm. The Danube Delta is a must-visit. The endless reed beds are home to over 300 species of birds. Take a boat trip into the heart of the delta, and listen to the sounds of birds and water, as if you've entered a paradise. Romania, a hidden gem, will create unique travel memories for you.

Not too far from Bucharest is Castle Bran, a real castle! The furnishings and setting take you back in time. The carved wood furnishings and handpainted ceilings are breathtaking, the scenery even more so. Worth the trip. #givethanks #realcastle #familytravel #romania #castlebran #givethanks
