Photos from Brasov by Romanianvoice >>
The most beautiful city in Romania is beyond doubt Brasov, or Kronstadt as the Austrians used to call the town. The German - Austrian influence is still visible and German is spoken by some old people in the area still. The most important Protestant Church in Romania, THE BLACK CHURCH is situated in Brasov. Along with a set of other historical monuments. Being the third largest city in Romania, it is also important financially and culturally. But it is the old pedestrian city centre, the old buildings and the relaxed atmosphere that make Brasov special, along with the surroundings of course - hills, mountains and valleys that bring you to the heart of Romania in all ways. Being a year-round destination it challenges Constanta as Romania's main tourist city. During winter Poiana Brasov ski resort is the ultimate playground of Romanian skiers and after-skiers, and during summer hikers from all over the world seek beauty of the Brasov region. 30 minutes from Brasov city centre by car is Bran, the village with the so-called Dracula Castle, a castle that without any real reason has been linked to the Vlad Tepes myth by smart villagers who know how to attract visitors.
