 Explore mythical country of the forest of Transylvania and legend of Dracula. Discover the gay scene in Bucharest, Cluj-Napoca and Sibiu. Rugged stone churches and dazzling monasteries dot a pristine landscape of rocky mountains and rolling hills. Transylvanian towns have stepped out of time, while vibrant Bucharest is all energy. The Carpathian Mountains draw a wide arc through the centre of the country, leaving a swath of exposed rocky peaks surrounded by groves of pine and deciduous trees, and stretches of bright green meadow below. Transylvania, the land that gave us Dracula, has no shortage of jaw-dropping castles pitched precariously on rocky hilltops.

The capital and largest city of Romania. Bucharest is home to around 2 million people making it the sixth largest city in the European Union. Famously the residence of Vlad the Impaler, Bucharest’s history is as turbulent as it is interesting. This is reflected in its architecture as traditional Ottoman religious buildings vie for attention with beautiful Art Nouveau buildings, while communist monstrosities are an eye-saw for everyone.
