What to do and see in Transylvania, Romania: The Best Natural History Museums

June 20, 2021 Flossie Demartino

Transylvania is a historical region in today's central Romania. Bound on the east and south by its natural borders, the Carpathian mountain range, historical Transylvania extended westward to the Apuseni Mountains. The term sometimes encompasses not only Transylvania proper, but also the historical regions of Crișana and Maramureș, and occasionally the Romanian part of Banat.

Dino Parc

Dino Parc Râșnov is the biggest dinosaur theme park in Eastern Europe, an unique and special project in Romania. Constantly we are considering to improve, and this year we developed a new area in our park with dinosaurs and prehistoric animal that lived on our territory, in Hațeg more specifically. It has a lot of particularities, but the most important are the 100 dinosaurs. Each one of them has a scientific certificate, according to the latest palaeontologists’ findings. The dinosaurs are reproduced in natural size, on a 1 to 1 scale. They are made of fibreglass and a special resin, having a guarantee for 50 years. Another very important attraction in our park is Seismosaurus, the biggest dinosaur that ever lived on planet Earth and it has 45 meters long. More than that, there is a chronological route to visit them, with sounds, lights and interactive panels with very interesting information regarding dinosaur’s life and behaviour.

Lots of fun, not just for kids! As two grown-up friends, we worried that the Dino Parc might not be for us: The parc definitely aims for the young crowds with lots of fun and activities, but the dinosaurs spread throughout the park are well made and impressive also for the adult visitor. There's information boards that give plenty of interesting facts and there are some great photo opportunities too. Had a great couple of hours in the park!

A very interesting museum where you can find out more about animals and their habitats. I was amazed to see a Portuguese jellyfish and other species exposed.
