Bran is an enchanting settlement cradled amidst the foothills of the Bucegi mountains, at the heart of Transylvania. This captivating locale ranks among the most frequented tourist spots in Romania. But it’s not the idyllic green valley or hilltop dwellings that appeal to the visitors. Such sights are commonplace throughout our beautiful country. Hordes of tourists are drawn to the awe-inspiring Bran Castle. The tiny community of Bran houses substantial historical and cultural relics of Romania. The town seems ensnared in a bygone era due to the architecture of Bran Castle and the museums. Despite its historical allure, Bran remains anchored in the present, thanks to the towering mountains it rests beneath and the availability of modern sporting activities such as skiing.
