1. Did you know that Arges city was the first capital of Romania?

2. If we were to put together a tour of the castles in Romania for Dracula fans and adventure lovers, Poenari Castle would have to be on the list, being an important Romanian tourist attraction. With this private trip you will have the perfect chance to discover the wildlife in Transylvania. For the moment the Fortress is under restauration, so we will not go to visit, we will just take some pictures of it!

About Boekarest

Boekarest, de hoofdstad van Roemenië, brengt boulevards uit de belle époque, orthodoxe kerken en communistische monumenten samen rond een drukke oude stad.

Het enorme Parlementspaleis, een van de grootste administratieve gebouwen ter wereld, domineert het centrum als een opvallende erfenis uit de tijd van Ceaușescu. De Calea Victoriei, de grote laan, voert langs de koepelvormige concertzaal Roemeens Athenaeum, het voormalige Koninklijk Paleis, waar nu het Nationaal Kunstmuseum zit, en het Revolutieplein, waar de gebeurtenissen van 1989 zich afspeelden.
