About Transylvania
Although some people may only associate the name with tales of bloodthirsty vampires (it is the home of the title character in Bram Stoker's novelDracula), Transylvania is one of the most beautiful natural regions inEurope, dotted with picturesque, medieval fortress towns and monasteries. Lively cities with stunning baroque architecture offer modern tourism services at a price far below that of, say,GermanyorFrance. Here you can find some of the most developed cities in Romania, but also old villages where people live as they did a hundred years ago. Transylvania is surrounded by the misty Carpathian mountains and is home to rare fauna (bears, wolves) and flora (orchids and other plants). Transylvania has all the history and multi-ethnic culture you could want. The history of Transylvania
