Map & Location

Located in eastern Europe and famous for the forests of Transylvania and extraordinarily well-preserved medieval structures, Romania is the definition of “picturesque”.

Experience centuries-old traditions in a safe and welcoming country where tourism is popular. Spot stunning historic castles and churches, unique architectural styles, and the breathtaking Carpathian Mountains. Don’t miss Bran Castle, built in the 1300s, said to be the home of Dracula.

Brasov

In the Carpathian Mountains of Transylvania is a city steeped in medieval charm and natural beauty. Home to 250,000 people, Brasov is a stunning mix of Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque architecture, evident in its well-preserved Old Town.

Extremely well connected due to its central location, Brasov has an airport, 44 bus routes, and one of the busiest railway stations in the country. It has a temperate climate with warm summers and cold winters. Also, we’re pretty sure there aren’t any vampires!
