Brasov Travel Guide: 645 reviews and 1,774 photos

Brasov is the biggest and most developed Transylvanian town. It is beautiful, warm, multinational, with all the necessary features and facilities of a big town, and full of lovely people!

Nearby there are amazing excursio spots - Poiana Brasov ski center, Rasnov , the medieval village on the top of the hill, and at last, but not least, Bran, the home of Dracula!

This is actually a school (see my general tips).
The spooky effect on this photo is unknown! It adds to the Transylvanian mystery!

I've been to Brasov with my great old friends Helen (hailun on VT) and Alina (sweety76 on VT).
