Iulia Hasdeu castle located in Campina (2-hours away from Bucharest) is one of the most haunted castles in Romania. It is a mystery starting with its architecture and continuing with the sad story of Iulia Hasdeu, the girl who designed it after her death. Her father built it after he contacts her during some spiritism sessions. Locals tell stories about weird noises coming from the castle at night and also some strange deaths are connected to this spot. When you visit it, you always have the impression that somebody is watching you. So, if you are interested to see the scary places in Romania, you cannot miss Iulia Hasdeu castle.

Bran Castle – Romania Vampire Castle

Bran castle is known to be count Dracula’s castle. In a guided tour inside, you will hear the real story of this medieval attraction, discover its connections with the famous vampire and find out the answer to your question “is Bran castle haunted?“. You will discover here that Bran hides not only secret passages, vampire myths but also royal history.

Interesting places in Romania: Sinca Veche monastery

Your last stop on the first day will be in Sinca Veche. Here you will visit an old monastery in the mountains, known as the place where wishes come true. Sinca Veche monastery was built in a cave and inside you will feel its magic: it is a monastery that doesn’t look like any other. Read more about Sinca veche monastery.

You will stop in Rasnov for the night in a 3*/4* guest house.

Day 1

Bontida castle and free time in Cluj

Banffy Castle – a haunted castle in Transylvania

After a delicious breakfast in Rasnov, it is time to go to the heart of Transylvania and visit the ruins of a beautiful castle: Banffy castle in Bontida. The castle is famous today because it hosts every year Electric castle, a popular music festival. But the domain is open for visitors every day. Because of its beauty, it was called the Versailles of Transylvania. Unfortunately, the castle has a sad story and during the second world war, it was used as a hospital. It is said that the German soldiers who died here are still haunting the area.

Cluj Napoca

In the afternoon your guide will take you to Cluj Napoca, the second-largest city in Romania and the most important one in Transylvania. Here you will have the afternoon free to explore the old town of Cluj and to enjoy its fancy restaurants.

Hoia Baciu, the haunted Romanian forest

Your third day will start with a tasty breakfast at your hotel in Cluj Napoca. After, your guide will take you outside the city so you can visit the Hoia Baciu forest considered the most haunted place in Romania. Although it looks like an ordinary forest, it is famous for its strange appearances and unexplained phenomena: wild animal roars(even though no large animals are known to live in the area), no phone signal, and trees with unnatural shapes. During our visits here, it happened more than once that the tourists wanted to get out of the forest as soon as possible and end the visit because of the strange feelings!

Sibiu

In the afternoon you will arrive in Sibiu, a beautiful medieval city. Admire its narrow streets and romantic atmosphere, visit its medieval churches and take pictures of the old houses and their lovely windows. Sibiu is a real jewel and very welcoming to its visitors.

Before showing you how you can spend 12 days in Romania, let’s answer some questions. These are questions that you may have before any self-drive trip in Romania.

    Driving in Romania

    Is it safe to drive through Romania?

    Romania is unfortunately in the last places in the EU in terms of road accidents and the victims resulting from them. But if you follow the traffic rules, driving in Romania becomes a safe and even a pleasant experience. Once you get behind the wheel, it is important to respect the speed limits. It is also mandatory to use a seat belt and a child seat for smaller passengers. Do not drive under the influence of alcohol and do not use your mobile phone while driving. The legislation has zero-tolerance for alcohol consumption when driving. Also, pay attention to pedestrians, animals, cyclists and horse-drawn carriages. They could be traveling on the same road as motor vehicles, especially in rural areas.

    Does Romania have good roads?

    Romania has a total of almost 90,000 km of roads divided into national roads, county roads and communal roads. Highways (just under 1000 km in total) are part of national roads. Therefore, a road trip in Romania can take longer than one in countries with several highways. National roads and most county roads are in good condition, with a few exceptions. That is why it is important to plan your trip according to the road restrictions, the condition of the roads and the congested areas. Some national roads become extremely crowded because they connect the important cities of Romania, but you can avoid congestion if you know when to pass by there.

    Do you have to wear a seatbelt in Romania?

    The seat belt must be worn in Romania by all passengers of a car. Driving a car without wearing a seat belt is categorised as a class I fine and is punishable by a fine and penalty points. Passengers in a vehicle can also receive the same penalty if they do not wear a seat belt. Exceptions to this rule are only pregnant women and people with a medical certificate that exempts them from wearing a seat belt.

    What is the speed limit in Romania?

    Speed limits are indicated in kilometres per hour. The other road signs including distance are indicated using meters or kilometres because Romania uses the metric system. The speed limits in Romania are: 50 km/h – inside the cities or villages (unless the road signs mention something else) 130 km/h – on the motorway 100 km/h – on express, national and European roads 90 km/h – on the other categories of roads, outside the built-up areas

    Which side of the road does Romania drive on?

    Although there are states and regions where you drive on the left side of the road, accounting for about 35% of the world’s population, in Romania you drive on the right side, as in most areas.

    Can foreigners drive in Romania?

    If they are staying for a maximum of 90 days in the country, foreigners can drive in Romania with any international driving license. Not all national driver’s licenses are accepted. For example, U.S. citizens who wish to drive in Romania must have an International Driving Permit in addition to a valid U.S. state drivers’ license.

    How easy is it to travel around Romania?

    For public transport, Romania has trains and buses. The main cities of the country are well connected, but sometimes the public transport schedule won’t allow you to see as many things as you could by driving. Also, the rural areas are not so well connected, so it is harder to visit the attractions located outside the city without a car. But a good itinerary, excellent planning and a car rental can ensure you the best way to travel around Romania.

Every year, it gains 40 m2 from the water. When you visit it, you feel like you’ve entered a region with no rules, where the man doesn’t make its presence felt yet.

In 4 days you will have enough time to get a first impression. But after that, you will definitely want to go back for more! Or you can try another long tour in Romania.
