The Cozia monastery impresses by its authentic architectural style and very well kept interior wall paintings ( icons) and exterior walls. It also impresses by lodging inside the tomb of a well known , heroic Romanian ruler from the XIV century. There is also a museum that can be visited free of charge. Pictures or filming inside the church is forbidden.

We have been 10 families, spending there a weekend, including a wine tasting, breakfast and dinner. Our POC was Bianca whom, together with her team did everything for us to have one of the best weekends we ever had. We have been lucky to have a late autumn sunny weather, enjoying the morning coffee on the terrace overlooking the Olt Valley and the evenings charmed by the autumn colours of the hills in the sunset. And all this is possible due to the fact that the entire complex have been thought, designed and developed in a unitarian concept by architect Alexandru Beldiman. Avincis is a family business, developed with own financing, offering accommodation in 9 double rooms, 2 apartments with 1 bedroom and 1 apartment with 2 bedrooms. Even if it's rated at 3*, it could be easily included at 4*. Each room has own bathroom (equipped with top sanitary items) and a dressing space, fridge, cable TV, wireless internet. Be aware that, from Dragasani, there are 2 roads heading there. One of them is not so good, so you should follow the indicating signs posted on the national road. The dinner and the wine tasting (including 5 wines) were very appreciated by everybody. I would say you shouldn't miss this experience, especially if you like a good wine! Thank you, Bianca and your team!

It takes around 45 minutes with children from the parking place to the waterfall. The tax is 5 ron/adult at this moment. The walk is relatively easy and pleasant through the forest with amazing cliffs. The waterfall is nice to stay, relax and enjoy the view and sound of the water.

It is not easy to reach this attraction, almost no signs, only relied on Online Maps. Parking was ok, free. Overall we liked that the experience is not yet so commercial to rip you off for everything big time and to queue forever like Turda. It is also a bit more modest, but good. The price is around 5 euros for adult and you go down by bus, fun ride. Once inside the ample rooms with layers of salt are impressive. The salt smell is strong. Food, beverages and fun is quite cheap and very diverse. Toilets are in 3 places, could be cleaner. We liked the time there.
