MOLDAVIA and BUCOVINA

by alirom

Moldavia has an extensive countryside of forests and hills, with many lesser known delights to discover, especially in the region of Targu Neamt. You might even catch a glimpse of a buffalo, a species which is being reintroduced into a natural reservation. There are hiking routes and camping facilities, as well as good hotels in the main towns. And Moldavian wines have been known for five centuries. There are vineyards that can be visited. Bucovina - the north-eastern province of Romania - is renowned for the beautiful exterior frescoes on the walls of its monasteries. These triumphs of Byzantine-influenced art reflect a development of Moldavian civilisation in the 15th and 16th centuries, under the patronage of Stephen the Great (1457-1504).

Our shopkeeper friend thought it would be the coolest thing if we took a picture together with a lion cub! I hated that idea. I didn't like seeing these lion cubs being paraded around, but I didn't want to hurt his feelings....

It was quite the place.

by shotgunsally

The people are fantastic. No matter how hard I tried to speak Romanian to them they wanted to practice their English and wouldn't help. Made it hard for immersion. Didn't matter-- they were awesome. The countryside was lush and beautiful. No matter where we went, it was green and gorgeous. I wish I had more time to explore the mountain areas while I was there. I have been told the Carpathians are amazing I will never forget as long as I live the night I spent sleeping in the tower of the castle. It was creepy but not haunted. Maybe it was... it was still pretty cool.

Museul Satalui

by Pinoy

Muzeul Stalui is the Village Museum of Bucharest founded in 1936. It is one of the world most important ethnographic museums. It is a synthesis of the Romanian folk architecture until 1900 - before the urban influence on the village; there are exhibited authentic peasant houses, representative for the architectural styles determined by the specific environmental conditions - mountains, hills, and plains.

by PashenkaMD

Go to the beach. I am not a beach person. I don't like anything about beaches in general, but I enjoyed the Black Sea. The best place is Constanta. You can get there by speed train from Bucaresti. I toured the Palace downtown in Bucaresti. That is worth the time to go see and tour it.

by chagi1

When in Romania an absolute must is the region of Transylvania!!!! Transylvania is the home of Vlad Tepes AKA Dracula. It is located in the northern region of Romania.<hr color='blue' width='250' Vlad Tepes was ruler in Romania in the 1400's. He was known for being a ruthless leader and a severe punisher (death by impalment) for those he considered enemies and criminals. This is where the story of the blood thirsty Dracula came to be known.

A man on the night train between Bucuresti and Sibiu started talking to me in French and when he found out I was Belgian he told me he spent 3 years in Belgium. 'Work?' I asked. 'No in prison' He gave me revieuws of almost every prison in Belgium. I didn't ask him why he had been there though.....

by cssresita

There are a lot of 'musts'. One definately has to see the mountains, and there are plenty a places to choose from. From my experience I would always recommend Sinaia, I go there every time. Predeal or Poiana Brasov are two other places that offer about the same things Sinaia offers. Great scenary, very active if you like hiking, mountain biking and skiing in the winter ( or most of the year). Plus it is a perfect place to be if want to get away from the congested life in the city. It is a very relaxing and quiet place if that's what you want it to be, or it could be the most fun and exciting place if that's what you want it to be. It really is up to the individual. There are too many.
