This is the heart of the city. With so many nearby restaurants and cafes, this is a vibrant area with locals and tourists. You can have a seat and watch people carrying bags from their shopping. Just around the corner from Old Town is the historic Black Church.

Brasov is one of the most beautiful cities in Romania, with plenty of historical monuments and natural attractions, many excellent restaurants and offering good accommodations as well. I recommend asking at a hotel reception for the simplified map of the Old Center and have a walk along the fortifications. The central City Square (or Piata Sfatului in Romanian) is an amazing large plaza from where one can see a bit of everything: the Tampa peak with its huge, white name of the city above, the Black Church and the historic layout of business surrounding the place.

Dear Visitors to Bran Castle, On June 1, 2009, we celebrated the return of the heirs of Princess Ileana with Bran Castle’s rebirth as the first private museum and premiere tourist destination of Romania. June 1st is the International Day of Children and Bran Castle’s day of revival. Fittingly, we have chosen to celebrate the day with special events for children, so that we may all remain fresh and young at heart. During the past year we have completed refurbishing the Castle, recapturing the spirit of Queen Marie’s favorite retreat and the loved home of her descendants. We have installed easy to read informational plaques and a media room for our visitors. We are currently restoring the park, as well as renovating all the facilities. We are also preparing additional cultural events and entertainment for our visitors. Following the castle’s change of ownership, director Narcis Ion remained with the Ministry of Culture, but has continued to be our valued advisor. We have welcomed a new group of managing directors: Lia Doru Trandafir, Corin Trandafir, and Alexandru Priscu. We are happy to receive every guest that comes to visit us. Welcome to our castle, our home. Sincerely, Dominic Habsburg, Maria-Magdalena Holzhausen, Elisabeth Sandhofer

We took a tour of Bran Castle as part of a day long tour and as we drove to the castle from Brasov, our tour guide, Manuela, gave us a thorough impressive discussion concerning the legend and lore of Bran Castle, aka Dracula's Castle vs. what was the true history behind Bran Castle. To enjoy the castle and the surrounding area, knowing the true story makes it all the more worthwhile. The castle itself is not a huge castle but was built in this location for not only defense/fortification reasons but also to collect taxes on goods as they traversed to and from Europe from countries further east. The location was one of the better ways to move goods through the region thus it was a prime tax collection site. The castle itself is impressive when you see it afar and close-up. Inside, it is rather minimalist but typical. It is worth the visit whether you visit based on folklore or want to know the true actual history!

I was afraid being inside and that’s good. Sadly we were not able to take photos. You have to do it if you have time (about 10min). Price 40 lei (9euros)
