The next task: “storm” the fortress Ryshnov. We will visit a powerful defensive structure built on top of the mountain by peasants of the village of Ryshnov, back in the 13th century. At the highest point of the fortress there is an observation deck from where a beautiful view of the surrounding Carpathians opens.

Excursion to the most famous castle of Romania - Bran Castle or Dracula Castle. Infused with legends about Vlad Tepes, his heroic fight against the Turkish invaders and of course about vampires, the castle, as it is not strange, greets tourists very friendly. At least during the day, there were no vampire attacks.

In the town of Sinai, we will make an excursion to one of the most beautiful (or perhaps even in the opinion of many) the most beautiful palace in Europe – Peles Palace. I think this phrase is enough to intrigue you, the rest of it in Romania!

Day 3 is dedicated to UNESCO monuments.

We return to the Middle Ages, feel like in the fairy tales of Anderson and the Brothers Grimm during an excursion to the fortified church of Viskri (13th century, UNESCO) and to the fortress town of Sighisoara (UNESCO). The authenticity and simplicity of the village life of the Transylvanian village of Viscri conquered even the British Prince Charles, who bought a village house here.

Sighisoara, it's just a fairy tale city! And not least, the birthplace of the legendary Prince Dracula, even the house where I was born Dracula in 1431 has survived.
