Romania is rapidly becoming a new destination for vacationers

The starting point to most tour will more than likely be in the
country's capital, Bucharest. Often referred to as Little Paris for

Village Museum - which just celebrated its 100 year anniversary,
which can be included in a full day city tour. Or you may consider
an excursion to Snagov Lake, the tomb of Dracula, and Mogosoaia
Castle.
When referring to Romania the first thing that comes to mind is
Transylvania. Transylvania is home to some of the best preserved
medieval towns in Europe, most relating to the legend of Dracula;
such as Sighisoara, Brasov and Sibiu - announced as the "European
Capital of Culture" in 2007, together with Luxemburg. Also the
stunning and picturesque castles such as Peles Palace, Corvinesti
Castle, Fagaras Fortress, Bran Castle - also known as Dracula
Castle, and more. The Fortified Saxon Churches, such as Biertan, are
other monuments to consider when planning your tour through
Transylvania. Medieval Romania Tour of Transylvania Ancient Cities
and Return To The Middle Ages Short Break Tour of Sinaia and Bran
from Bucharest are a couple tours you might consider.
Next moving up to the North of Romania in the Maramures region where
a unique life style has been persevered through-out the years. The
ancient village of Sapanta has become famous for its Merry Cemetery;
called this because each grave stone cross contains an illustration
and a poem depicting the persons life in a humorous way. Scattered
through out the mountains you will find exquisite wooden churches,
houses and sculptures in village museums which many of these
monuments have been entered into the UNESCO world heritage listings.

Continuing on the Northern trail head to Southern Bucovina and see
the frescos of the painted monasteries. Set amidst the scenery of
the surrounding mountains in villages known for their traditional
way of life. Each fresco tells a different biblical story on its
painted walls on the outside and inside of the monasteries, as well
on the ceiling of the interior. This treasures are a must to add to
your itinerary. A wonderful way to combine this region with other
Word Heritage Cities of Mankind is with the 8 Day Tour of Romania
