Beautiful places to visit in Romania – Part.I

Romania is a beautiful country placed in southestern Europe, on the western shores of Black Sea, the largest country on the Balkan Peninsula, a country where all forms of relief are combined, with a lot of great natural beauty, diversity and an old and rich cultural heritage. It’s known for the large forested area of Transylvania, for the legend of Dracula’s realm, for the Carpathian arch ringing its surface, as well for the preserved medieval cities with fortified churches and castles.

#4 The medieval fortress Rasnov

The medieval fortress Rasnov is a historic monument built between 1211 and 1225 during the rule of the Teutonic Knights in Burzenland, as a part of a defense system of Transylvanian villages exposed to outside invasions. 

Inside the citadel can be found a museum with exponates of the local history, containing several sections, such as: document photocopies, weapons, tools, stamps and period objects. 

#7 The Sphinx- Bucegi Mountains Monument

The Sphinx from the Bucegi Natural Park located in Bucegi Montains is a megalith anthropomorph with 8 m in height and 12 m in width, placed at over 2200 meters altitude and it was named so due of its resemblance to the Egyptian sphinx. Its form is the result of wind erosion, although there are many legends telling about a Dacian human contruction or a work of aliens. Around The Sphinx can be observed also the Babele Complex, a complex of rock formations.
