Romania, a surprising destination.
In southeastern Europe, between Hungary, Bulgaria, Moldavia and Ukraine, lies Romania, a country with a surface area of just 38,390 km². Occupied in turn by the Byzantines, Slavs, Arabs and European kingdoms, Romania boasts a cultural mosaic where East and West, tradition and modernity form a beautiful picture.
This country, long marked by communism, is a destination of choice for backpackers looking to get off the beaten track. In Romania, you're a long way from the standard vacation destinations. You won't find turquoise lagoons here, but rather a tranquil river, the Danube, on whose banks birds, especially pelicans, bask in the sun. You'll tour picturesque villages where farming is still done the old-fashioned way. You'll be greeted with the authentic warmth characteristic of places still preserved from mass tourism. A land of history with a multi-century past, Romania is home to architectural gems that still retain their beauty despite the ravages of time. Between visits to the monasteries of Moldavia, the medieval buildings of Transylvania and the wooden churches of Maramures, lovers of culture and history will have no time to get bored during their stay in Romania. Spoiled by nature, Romania also offers a vast playground for lovers of the great outdoors. They can choose between assaulting the peaks of the Carpathians, or wandering through the bucolic valleys of Transylvania.

Romania, endless sights
Contrary to appearances, Romania is a veritable treasure trove of historical relics and natural wonders. In the Carpathians, a world worthy of a Grimm Brothers fairy tale awaits you, made up of primeval forests and rolling pastures. As you wander along the marked trails and wild plateaus, you'll have the chance to catch a glimpse of a brown bear or a whole colony of birds. On the slopes of the Carpathians, the painted monasteries of Bucovina take shape. These weathered edifices bear witness to the Orthodox tradition deeply rooted in Romanian culture. The frescoes that adorn these centuries-old churches detail biblical scenes and the siege of Constantinople in a festival of colors. These monasteries were built by the Moldavian prince Stephen the Great.
After the Carpathians, take the road to the Danube delta. This site, which enjoys international environmental protection, is a must for budding ornithologists. Numerous bird species have found refuge here. With a little patience, you can observe falcons, whooper swans, great egrets, white-tailed eagles and European rollers. Transylvania and its lush green valleys also appeal to nature hikers, but its main attraction lies elsewhere. Legend has it that it was in this mysterious region of Romania that Vlad the Impaler, the ancestor of vampires, lived. Bram Stocker drew inspiration from him to create the character of Dracula. Take advantage of your stay in Transylvania to visit Bran Castle, where Vlad the Impaler often stayed. Seen from afar, still shrouded in mist, this edifice, with its turrets and fortifications, is chilling, but seen up close, it's far from gloomy. Its geranium-lined courtyard and immaculate walls even lend it an endearingly bohemian air.
The ideal time to visit Romania
The best time to visit Romania depends essentially on what you want to do. If your main reason for visiting Romania is to hike or cycle in the Carpathian Mountains, the best time to plan your trip is during the summer, between June and August. Spring, from mid-April to mid-May, is best for birdwatching in the Danube delta. This period is also perfect for those who wish to witness the incredible spectacle of melting snow and the first wildflowers blooming. If you'd like to go skiing, the resorts are open between December and March.
