it's a good place to be happy for our nowadays life many methods of torture are presented, still used in the 18th century, only 230 years ago those methods had the aim to save the souls of the convicted people, for even ordinary deeds, in the name of God; actually, the prosecutors of those times despised the God ultimate creation, the man five years before French Revolution, two Romanians, leaders of an important local uprising, were killed using one the methods presented there - Horea and Closca; look at the wheel and try to think what they felt

The museum itself isn't too big, but you can easily spend a whole day in there, just noticing all the carefully placed diorama details. There's seasonal dioramas, working trains and interactive sounds/actions buttons for the visitors to push. The hilarious details make it a superbly thought out miniatures showcase. I won't give out any spoilers, though! We visited on a Saturday morning, luckily it was early enough, so we had the whole display to ourselves. The hostess was very kind, talked to us about the history behind the collection, who Valentin Banciu was and how he managed to amass so many wonderful pieces. We were even given a little treat, the ability to see the display in the dark, truly amazing for visitors of all ages! Entrance fee was about the price of a burger, but you get much more out of it :)

When you go to Romania, one of the main things you want to see are their castles. We visited three of their castles, and Hunedoara Castle or also called Corvin Castle was by far the best of the three. (See my other reviews of the other two, Dracula's Castle (Bran Castle) and Peles Castle.) Welcome to Transylvania! Corvin Castle starts out wonderfully exciting with your first glimpse of the outside of this great Medieval Castle with all of the bells and whistles one would describe of it's architecture and stonework. Before you go inside, take a great picture with the Castle behind you. I just loved roaming around every space here, large and small, up and down, everywhere we looked, was an interesting adventure. It really is a great example of what you want to see when you explore a Medieval Castle. We really took some great pictures. Some of the spots are a little difficult with the lighting, but we managed anyway. Don't miss this one, you will love it.
