Trip To Transylvania: From Alpine Pursuits To The Legend Of Dracula!
Transylvania is a surprising destination. A very discrete province of Romania surrounded by the horseshoe of the Carpathian Mountains, it has the ambiance of the Swiss Alps but retains a medieval character to its countryside, and the language has the musical lilt of Italian. Astonishingly, Transylvania's most famous fictional character, Count Dracula, doesn't actually feature much here: 'He's not real!' was the baffling explanation I was given for this. Romania is alone in the European Union in still having some functioning medieval landscapes which have great cultural, social and environmental significance but are struggling economically. The challenge is to preserve the unique mountain landscape while opening it up for use by visitors in a way that respects and protects the villages and the traditional way of life.

Off The Beaten Track: Best Things To Do Around Hunedoara, Romania
Most people have heard about Transylvania: according to Bram Stoker, that's where vampires come from. However, based on my experience, some people don't associate Transylvania with Romania and even if they do, the knowledge that they have about the area is very limited. Hunedoara is not only a part of the well-kept secrets of Transylvania but also the core of a wonderfully unexplored area. The small town emerged during the communist times around a steelworks factory - Combinatul Siderurgic Hunedoara. It still has a very industrial vibe to it, even though the factory is slowly dying with every year that passes. What's so great about this area? Here, we bring you the top 10 things to do in and around Hunedoara.

Discover Romania's 6 Painted Monasteries In Bucovina
There aren’t many countries in the world lucky enough to have such a high density of historic and cultural sites, beautiful landscapes and spiritual legacy as Romania. The northern part of the country is called Bucovina and it translates as "the land of beech trees". The impressive number of monasteries in Bucovina, with their interesting interior and exterior frescoes, has been preserved since medieval times. Given their unique artistic value, the painted monasteries from this part of Romania are considered a UNESCO World Heritage Site. You may wonder why the monasteries were painted. The frescoes were created in a time when that area was under constant attack from the Ottoman Turks, so the locals painted the frescoes as a way of communicating biblical and historical stories to their illiterate troops and keep them engaged and informed about the realities of the time. Read on to discover six of the painted monasteries in Bucovina, Romania.
