Matti Pensola, ‘Romania Classical Tour July 2007′
August 20, 2007
‘We were the group of four persons and we made 8 days “Romania Classical tour” mostly in Transsylvania area in July 2007. Our route was about following: Bucharest-Sinaia-Moeciu-Brasov-Sighisoara-Cluj Napoca-Satu Mare-Borsana-Pietra Neamt-Moeciu-Bucharest.
So we saw lot about Romania north from Bucharest.We visited e.g : Peles castle, Bran Castle,Rasnov Fortress,Black Church, Maramures village museum, Merry Cemetery,wooden, painted, humor and many other monasteries,Red Lake etc. One of the best part of the journey was those many hikings we made in the very beautiful mountains. Hills were full of flowers, farmers was cutting and collecting hay with the traditional old methods and sun was shining all the time.
Our farmer house accommodation in Moeciu (for 3 days) was in a really wonderfull place in the middle of flower field in the mountain slope. We had a really excellent guide. Everything was very well organised, everything was possible.
I warmly recommend to visit in Romania and Transsylvania now (especially during the summer time) before the mass tourism will take too much place. In countryside you will still see the traditional ways of farming and nice old villages. Many thanks about your friendly company during our stay in Romania.
