Holidays to Transylvania Romania

Located in the heart of the country, Cluj Napoca is a medium-sized city full of young people. Most of its inhabitants are university students, one of the reasons why the nightlife there is so known. However, I decided to explore other aspects of the city, particularly the mix of medieval, soviet, and contemporary vibes; visible in the different architectural landmarks and traditions. After checking in at my hotel, and a quick stroll to the nearest streets, I bumped into a small restaurant of traditional Transylvanian cuisine. I tried a veggie Moussaka and a roasted aubergine dip; these dishes felt like part of a Romanian family dinner, and despite being thousands of miles away from home, I felt welcomed. Among other things, I visited the well-kept botanical gardens, where locals mostly enjoyed their free time. I also went to the folk museum Transylvanian Museum of Ethnography, where I discovered traditional garments made with ancient techniques and patterns.

After visiting Cluj, the Bran, or Dracula Castle, among other attractions, I finally got to the capital. Bucharest is noticeably a more international city than the other places I visited in Romania. It is also more populated, and everything has a faster pace, like in other capitals. Carturesti Carusel Bookshop, located in a restored historic building in the old town, was one of my pivotal spots in this city. Near the bookshop, you will find a selection of restaurants for all budgets. Another reason I loved Bucharest, and in general Romania, was the incredible food, either local or international, for accessible prices. If you love good food, beer, and beautiful architecture, you will love the Caru ' Cu Bere Brewery, placed in a neo-gothic style building. Rather than a brewery, this building resembles a church, museum, or castle
