Things to do
Best stops and activities around Brașov
Cultural · 1-2 hours · Bran Castle is strongly marked by the imprint of Queen Marie, who created a very special royal residence, in which Romanian culture harmoniously blends with the European one, both inspired by the Sovereign's personality.
Outdoor · Varies · Once you reach the top If you arrive by cable car, keep in mind that the Tâmpa Belvedere platform is located a few hundred meters away from the upper station. To get there, face the direction where the city is on your right, and follow the path until you reach the platform. From the platform, you can admire the old town of Brașov, and get a bird’s-eye view of its entire medieval defensive system.
Cultural · Varies · Book Pensiunea Hanna, Brasov on Tripadvisor: See 12 traveler reviews, 5 candid photos, and great deals for Pensiunea Hanna, ranked #75 of 161 B&Bs / inns in Brasov and rated 4 of 5 at Tripadvisor.
Cultural · Varies · Yes, this entire place is a tad bit corny, especially with Dracula in a casket, but the home is the historic birth place of one of the most infamous leaders ever, even if many others during the time were just as cruel. Vlad gets a worse wrap because Bram Stoker made him "live forever" as the vampire Dracula.
