Visitors to Romania are often surprised by the miles of gorgeous beaches that stretch along the Black Sea. Beachside resorts are a great place to make home base for a week while visiting nearby Turkey and Greece.

If you’re looking for an inquest into the rich history of Romania, visit one of the many fortresses and castles. These medieval relics are a perfect glimpse into the majestic structures used as a shield against invaders. Specifically, be sure to take in Peles Castle, long thought of as the most beautiful castle in Europe.

Following ancient traditions, Romania is home to almost one hundred spas. Enjoy spending afternoons soaking in hot springs and taking in the natural minerals. Most spas also offer acupuncture, massage, and electrotherapy.

Romania is the perfect stay for any tourist, and one of the most visually spectacular nations in the world.
