Romania

It all started the summer of 2019. I had spoken with some friends and told them I wanted to spend 10 days visiting some less-known countries in Europe. After checking flights options, we ended up booking 3 flights: Madrid-Bucharest, Timișoara-Bucharest and Bucharest-Madrid.

In 10 days we visited two countries and several cities. Romania did surprise me. It was beautiful! Bucharest is a very interesting city, with a parliament that is one of the heaviest and largest of the world. Peleș Castle and Corvin Castle have a very different style and architecture but both are really beautiful. And, if we speak about beauty, we have to speak about Timișoara, which is known as the Little Vienna for a reason.

Almost forgot! If you like food and are curious about the history behind Dracula, this is a country you can’t miss! 🙂
