    We used to live in a cottage which had one of Dracula's castles* in our back garden.
    So might be nice to visit Vlad's original.


    * Many claims to fame I know, this one stems from Bram Stoker visiting a lot and describing the view across the gardens towards the sea in his famous book.





    The castle in question.
    Did a Romania trip a few years back, taking in the obligatory 'dracula's castle' tour. Really interesting place, from the stark communist architecture of Bucharest contrasting with its grand past, to the medieval places like Brasov and Sighisoara. Definitely worth a visit.

    Definitely worth to stop.

    A few lovely squares where you can eat but you probably won't go much further than the roman amphitheater.

    Gorgeous town and a great size for wandering around.

    Great, thanks. We can't pass through and not stop. Will be back with my thoughts in a few weeks 😁
