Times are gradually changing for the better in Romania, whose citizens were once under the communism rule and the megalomaniac dictatorship of Nicolae Ceausescu who drove the citizens and country into deep poverty. While traveling in the country, visitors will be rewarded with all there is to see if they can make it to the remote areas.
However, many visitors can get frustrated when they are delayed by reality. Even though some of the country is hard to get to, Romania is a hot vacation spot for people who love to travel abroad. One such charm is the region of Transylvania that tends to lure people for many reasons including medieval, historic towns, the Dracula legends, haunted forests, cliff-top castles and vampires. Tourists can take in the scenery of Carpathian Mountains and enjoy skiing and hiking occasions.
Romania has diverse characteristics such as the rural farmlands, hills, mountains and white beaches and resorts that dot the Black Sea coast. Among all of it, are rural villages where local inhabitants have resided for over 100 years. There’s plenty of religious architecture for historians and history buffs to view including the Bucovina painted monasteries. All cities in the country are brimming with ancient architecture. The citizens of Romania’s capital Bucharest have been rebuilding and reinventing itself after decades of neglect due to ruling communists. The damaged architecture is being restored to look the way it once was. However, it’s not all about the past in Bucharest. There are plenty of stylish restaurants, cultural and nightlife attractions for countrymen and women as well as tourists to enjoy.
