of Southeast Europe." (The Blue Guide)
"Few regions offer a more dazzling display of cultural and artistic treasures than Romania."(Smithsonian Journeys)
"Considered by many the most beautiful country in Eastern-Europe, Romania still claims regions that seem
bastions of a medieval past long since lost elsewhere." (Fodor's Eastern and Central Europe) "Romania has majestic castles, medieval towns, great hiking and wildlife…"
(The Lonely Planet)

Outstanding landscapes, a huge diversity of wildlife…" (The Rough Guide)
In December 1989, Romania was reborn as a free nation. This diverse country now welcomes tourists who can enjoy a wonderfully varied heritage of traditional culture, scenic splendours and opportunities for leisure. A resurgence of endeavour and enthusiasm is revigorating the tourist facilities of the country to create a unique holiday destination.
Legends like that of Count Dracula or the real history of Romania are testimonies of such an exciting past. Such a heritage is to be found in the high-roofed wooden churches of Transylvania.
