Reviews for Bran Castle

(Translated by Google) Tickets can be bought directly there, both in cash and by card from machines. We were like sheep, very crowded and in single file. They should control the number of visitors; there's hardly any space to see anything peacefully, read a bit about the history, or browse the exhibits. From the outside, the castle is unremarkable, just its location. Inside, it's somewhat interesting, but nothing to write home about. The basic entrance cost us 100 lei. There are also annexes, for an extra fee, of course, for dungeons that some people say are interesting. Nearby, there are many stalls selling food, drinks, and souvenirs for tourists, and at better prices than in Bucharest. (Original) Las entradas de pueden comprar directamente allí, tanto en efectivo como con tarjeta por máquinas, íbamos como borregos, muy masificado y en fila india, deberían controlar un poco el aforo, no hay casi espacio vital para ver algo tranquilo y leer un poco la historia o curiosear lo expuesto, por fuera no dice nada el castillo, simplemente su ubicación, por dentro es algo curioso, pero tampoco para tirar cohetes, nos costó 100 leu, la entrada básica, tb hay anexos, pagando claro, para mazmorras que dicen algunos que estaba curioso. En las proximidades hay muchos puestos de comida, bebida y artículos de regalos para turistas y a mejores precios que en Bucarest.

(Translated by Google) The castle is located in a beautiful place, in the mountains, which supposedly belonged to Vlad Țepeș, but of course this is just a legend. It has nothing to do with it. The view is beautiful, it is well furnished, and I liked the exterior design. It was a real crowd-shy place, almost unenjoyable, but I'm glad I went to see it. (Original) Gyönyörű helyen, a hegyekben található meg a kastély, ami elvileg Vlad Țepeșé volt, de természetesen ez csak legenda. Semmi köze hozzá. Szép a kilátás, jól berendezett, a külső kivitelezése is tetszett. Igaz tömegnyomor volt, szinte már élvezhetetlen, de azért örülök, hogy megnéztem.

Very nice. We were lucky, came mid week in May. Crowds not bad. Our tour guide said it gets so busy in June the line is 3 hrs long. Would not like that. Castle surprisingly small inside. Nicely decorated, well maintained.

(Translated by Google) Although Dracula never lived here, his legacy remains as a tourist attraction. The castle is impressive and set in a beautiful natural environment. (Original) Aunque Drácula no vivió aquí su impronta permanece como reclamo turístico. El castillo es impresionante y en un entorno natural bellísimo.

(Translated by Google) This time, my trip took me to the heart of Transylvania in Romania, because I simply couldn't pass up the opportunity to see the famous **Bran Castle** in person – better known to everyone as the legendary "Castle of Count Dracula". As you drive along a winding road through the Carpathian forests and suddenly see the mighty rock on which this medieval fortress proudly stands, you get that real, slightly eerie feeling. The mists that swirled around the towers that day provided a perfect, dramatic atmosphere. When I crossed the threshold and started exploring the interior, a few surprises awaited me: * **A labyrinth of mysterious corridors:** The castle is a real labyrinth inside. I walked along narrow, steep stairs, hidden passages and through small rooms with low ceilings. All of this gives a feeling of claustrophobia and mystery, as if a centuries-old secret is hidden around every corner. * **A Queen’s Castle, Not Just a Vampire’s Castle:** While we all come here for the legend of Dracula (and the inspiration that writer Bram Stoker found in these places), I was surprised by how much of a mark the Romanian Queen Maria left on the castle. In the 1920s, she turned it into her summer residence. The rooms are furnished with her beautiful traditional wooden furniture, white walls and fireplace, which gives the castle a surprising warmth. * **A Beautiful Inner Courtyard:** When I stepped onto the wooden balcony that surrounds the central inner courtyard with a fountain, I simply had to stop. The view is wonderfully romantic and offers a stark contrast to the dark legend of Vlad Tepes (the Impaler), who is said to have inspired Dracula. * **View from the top:** The view through the gunwales of the surrounding Transylvanian hills and the village below is simply magnificent. I imagined how the guards from here would have looked out for invaders centuries ago. As I descended back to the castle courtyard and walked through the park below the castle, I realized that Bran is much more than just a marketing story about vampires. It is a beautifully preserved piece of history that successfully intertwines Gothic mysticism with royal elegance. (Original) Potovanje me je tokrat zaneslo v osrčje Transilvanije v Romuniji, saj preprosto nisem mogla izpustiti priložnosti, da v živo vidim slavni **grad Bran** – vsem bolj znan kot legendarni "grad grofa Drakule". Že ko se pelješ po ovinkasti cesti skozi karpatske gozdove in se pred tabo nenadoma izriše mogočna skala, na kateri ponosno stoji ta srednjeveška utrdba, te spreleti tisti pravi, rahlo srhljivi občutek. Meglice, ki so se tisti dan vile okoli stolpičev, so poskrbele za popolno, dramatično vzdušje. Ko sem prestopila prag in začela raziskovati notranjost, me je čakalo nekaj presenečenj: * **Labirint skrivnostnih hodnikov:** Grad je znotraj pravi labirint. Hodila sem po ozkih, strmih stopnicah, skritih prehodih in skozi majhne sobe z nizkimi stropi. Vse to daje občutek klavstrofobičnosti in skrivnostnosti, kot da se za vsakim vogalom skriva kakšna stoletna skrivnost. * **Grad kraljice, ne le vampirja:** Čeprav vsi pridemo sem zaradi legende o Drakuli (in navdiha, ki ga je pisatelj Bram Stoker našel v teh krajih), me je presenetilo, kako močan pečat je na gradu pustila romunska kraljica Marija. V 20. letih prejšnjega stoletja ga je spremenila v svojo poletno rezidenco. Sobe so opremljene z njenim čudovitim tradicionalnim lesenim pohištvom, belimi stenami in kaminom, kar daje gradu presenetljivo toplino. * **Čudovito notranje dvorišče:** Ko sem stopila na leseni balkon, ki obkroža osrednje notranje dvorišče z vodnjakom, sem morala preprosto obstati. Ta pogled je čudovito romantičen in ponuja čisti kontrast tisti mračni legendi o Vladu Tepešu (Nabijalcu), ki naj bi bil navdih za Drakulo. * **Razgled z vrha:** Pogled skozi strelne lize na okoliške transilvanske hribe in vasico spodaj je naravnost veličasten. Predstavljala sem si, kako so stražarji stoletja nazaj od tukaj oprezali za napadalci. Ko sem se spustila nazaj na grajsko dvorišče in se sprehodila še skozi park pod gradom, sem ugotovila, da je Bran veliko več kot le marketinška zgodba o vampirjih. Je čudovito ohranjen kos zgodovine, ki uspešno prepleta gotsko mistiko z kraljevo eleganco.

I recommend visiting either at 9 AM or 6 PM. In between, it's extremely crowded with tourists. They don't limit the number of people inside at the same time, so you get funneled through like a sardine.

(Translated by Google) The castle is very beautiful and spectacular, the exhibitions are beautiful. It is tastefully decorated. We were lucky that there was no group, because then it would have been very crowded. The park around it is beautiful and well-kept. (Original) Nagyon szép és látványos a vár, szépek a kiállítások. Igényesen van berendezve. Nekünk szerencsénk volt , hogy nem volt csoport, mert akkor viszont nagyon zsúfolt lett volna. A körülötte lévő park szép és gondozott.

WAY too crowded, not enjoyable at all as a result. Guided tour had 40 people on it, mixing with other persons already in building, small rooms and stairs, you couldn’t pay me to go on it again.
