1. Transfagarasan Highway

5.0 based on 851 reviews
Reviewed By 118val - Shepparton, Australia
Because we travel mid October we were really fortunate that it was still open. The first part was magnificent with the sun shining through the colourful Autumn leaves. The road covered the southern section of the Carpathian mountains for 90 kilometers with steep hairpin bends, long S-curves and steep descents, climbs to 2,042 metres with snow in the upper sections. We stopped at Balea Lake and beautiful waterfall which was very peaceful as few people were travelling. some of the tunnels could be better lit however it really is a breath taking drive.

Reviewed By Vladimiramirela - Mississauga, Canada
History and memories ladden Cismigiu Gardens remains unblemished over quite a few lifetimes, more exactly since the eighteen's century. Like so many other parcs in Bucharest, it is loved and cherished as one of ots green oasis where people can stroll, jog, relax on a public bench, meet someone or simply pass through. However, Cismigiu is special with its large alleys guarded by old trees, with its manicured grass and colourful flowers, with its antique rows of seats, linked to each other along some paths, between the curves bridges over the lake and the rocky mountain in its middle.

Well worth the climb to the top for the views. And the late 1400's clock mechanism on the 6th floor was interesting.
8. Unirii Square

Reviewed By Tiberiu_Baranyi - Timisoara, Romania
If somebody would ask me to single out a spot in this beautiful city where I live I would say the "Unirii Square" - or Union Square if you like it more. It is one of the oldest squares in the city - in 1716 Eugen of Savoy liberated the city from the ottoman rule and with that started more than 2 centuries of Habsburg rule and also it began the transformation and rebuilding of the city. In Unirii Square you have most likely the greatest concentration of historical buildings , just to mention a few: - the Catholic Dome - built in the 18th century - 1774 it was finished. - the Baroque Palace - obviously built in a baroque style - over the centuries was hosting historical figures like Franz Joseph of Austria and the Royal Romanian couple King Ferdinand of Romania and Queen Mary of Romania. Nowadays is the home for the Art Museum of Timisoara. - the Serbian Orthodox Cathedral - built in 1748. - the Bruck House - built in Secession style. - the monument of the Holy Trinity - built after the bubonic plague ended in Banat ( 1731-1738 the plague was devastating the Banat region - the region where Timisoara is situated). This above are just a few of the buildings worth checking out. Also for those looking for a place to eat there are several restaurants : - the Drunken Rat - Pepper - In Thyme - Bistro M Just to mention a few of the places. (at the bottom I've chosen 3+ hours for the visit because I was considering that the average traveler will sit down for a few beers and have something to eat also, but for a fast visit you can do it in under 1 hour) A lot of things to see if you want to take a walk - several restaurants to choose from if you want to have lunch or dinner. So, once this world gets back to normal and you come again to visit Timisoara - come and check out Unirii Square, maybe you'll see me there too.
