Top 3 Castles To Visit in Romania - Personal Photos and Story
1. Peles Castle (Sinaia, Romania)
Peles Castle was built between 1873 and 1914 and it was meant to be the summer residence for the Romanian kings.
It is amazing on the outside and on the inside too. It is very luxurious, and it has some facilities such as vacuumers and heating in all rooms, without having any stove in the Castle.
This Castle has 160 rooms and many secret doors. Most beautiful rooms are The Hall of Honor, The Imperial Suite, The Grand Armory of The Arsenal and The Playhouse. Each corner of this castle deserves to be visited! It is the most beautiful castle in Romania.
2. Bran/Dracula Castle(Bran, Romania)
The first document that mentions Bran Castle is from 1377. During the centuries it was a fortress and a royal residence. The name: Dracula comes from Vlad the Impale's father whose nickname was: the Dracul.
It is a nice and unique place to visit. It isn't so luxurious as Peles Castle but you came to visit something from 1377, so it represents that period.
3. Cantacuzino Castle(Busteni, Romania)
Finish year: 1911. It was built for Prince Cantacuzino Grigore.
It is a nice castle to visit if you go on a holiday in Busteni.
