🗓️Best time to visit
May–September for walks and castles; winter brings budget Poiana Brașov skiing.
📸Top activities & landmarks
- Council Square and Republicii street
- Mount Tâmpa cable car
- Bran and Râșnov castles
- Strada Sforii — one of Europe's narrowest lanes
- The Transfăgărășan road in summer (drivers' dream)
🏨Where to stay
The old town under Tâmpa — warm family guesthouses at kind prices.
⚠️Tips & warnings
Bran is lovely but its Dracula link is marketing over history — add Râșnov and Peleș for the real thing. The bears are real in the outskirts: no forest trails after dusk.
