(Translated by Google) Avoid at all costs! A tourist trap. You queue to get in and then you're forced to walk through the tour in a single file, crammed together in small, uninteresting spaces. Claustrophobes and agoraphobes, I advise against it. There are so many more interesting places in Romania. Besides, Dracula, aka Vlad Tepes, never set foot here. (Original) A fuir ! Un piège à touriste. On fait la queue pour entrer et ensuite on fait la visite à la queue leu leu serrés les uns contre les autres dans des espaces réduits sans grand intérêt. Claustrophobes, agoraphobes, je vous déconseille. Il y a tellement de lieux plus intéressants en Roumanie. En plus Dracula alias Vlad Tepes n'a jamais mis les pieds ici.

(Translated by Google) It's not very good, for what it's worth, I expected much more, just looking at it from the outside is enough. (Original) No dice nada,para lo que vale,esperaba mucho más,con verlo por fuera,suficiente.

Wow :) don’t listen to any one about long lines to enter etc. YES off course you need to stay in a long line before you get in, but come on did some one expected something else, in one of the most popular tourist place in Romania :) My own opinion it’s worth to visit 100% my son was excited, with all this mysterious atmosphere. For me and my wife, we liked the view from the balcony. I think it’s one of those places that you like if you have good imagination and you like to touch something really ancient and mysterious. For those who is waiting that some will entertain them probably it will be not interesting.

(Translated by Google) The "house" of Vlad the Impaler. A special history and local reference center for those interested. (Original) Το "σπίτι" του Βλαντ του Παλουκωτή. Ιδιαίτερη ιστορία και τοπικό κέντρο αναφοράς για τους ενδιαφερόμενους.

Impressive castle and very nice surrounding garden.

(Translated by Google) It was a place I really wanted to visit. Besides the standard ticket, you need an extra ticket to see the torture chambers. It's worth the trip. (Original) Ziyaret etmeyi çok istediğim bir yerdi. Standart bilet dışında işkence odalarını görmek istiyorsanız ek bilet alıyorsunuz. Gezmeye değer.

(Translated by Google) It's not very nice inside; they should allow access to the green areas without having to pay the entrance fee to the castle, because the castle itself isn't very attractive inside. (Original) No es muy bonito por dentro, debería dejar entrar a las zonas verdes sin tener que pagar la entrada al castillo, porque el Castillo en sí por dentro no tiene mucho atractivo.

Amazing experience! We've learned a lot about the castle and its history from the staff, Gigi and Doina. Many thanks!!!

(Translated by Google) Interesting place. I would say it's more like a place for advertising Count Dracula or the afterlife. In front of the castle itself there are many stalls so it looks like a fair. Opening hours are from 9am. Tickets can be purchased in cash or by card. The tour takes up to an hour. (Original) Interesantno mesto. Pre bi rekao mesto za reklamu grofa Drakule ili u zagrobni život. Ispred samoga dvorca je mnoštvo prodajnih tezgi pa sve liči na vašar. Radno vreme je od 09h. Karte se mogu kupiti u kešu ili karticom. Za obilazak vam treba do sat vremena.

(Translated by Google) Here we are, reviewing a place that to call touristy is probably a compliment. From the outside, it's very beautiful, almost flawless. Except that it has absolutely nothing to do with Dracula. Vlad never lived here; his current castle is in a total state of ruin and is located far away from here, in southern Transylvania rather than the north. Inside, the rooms are furnished like your own home, with the walls and beams all recently redone. The torture chamber costs 20 lei, which is pointless to say the least; admission is 90 for adults and 50 for students. Twenty euros for this place is truly abhorrent and anything but well spent. Also considering that getting here, if not by car, is highly unlikely, except by a bus that's very poorly marked, both online and at the stops (there are no signs). If you're short on time, head to Peles Castle, a whole different story. There's a short line and numerous stairs to get in, with no other possible access. Tickets must be purchased in advance, but there's a line available there too. I went on a Friday morning, 30 minutes after opening. Below, before the entrance, there's a small square with a few kiosks, one of which has 5-lei magnets, but they don't accept credit cards. The price is very fair, unlike the castle, however. Visit only if you have nothing better to do; otherwise, a photo from the outside is fine! Enjoy your stay in Transylvania. (Original) Eccoci qua, a fare una recensione ad un posto che dirsi turistico è probabilmente un complimento. Da fuori, è molto bello, davvero quasi ineccepibile. Se non fosse che non ha nulla, ma proprio nulla, a che fare con Dracula. Vlad infatti non ha mai vissuto qui, il suo attuale castello è in totale stato di rovina e si trova molto lontano da qui, nella Transilvania del sud invece che nel nord. Dentro le stanze sono arredate come casa vostra probabilmente e muri e travi tutte rifatte da poco. Stanza delle torture a pagamento 20 lei, inutile a dir poco, ingresso adulti 90 e studenti 50. Venti euro per questo posto sono veramente abberranti e tutto fuorché ben spesi. Considerando anche che arrivare in questo posto, se non con la macchina è davvero improbabile, se non grazie a un bus davvero poco segnalato, sia online che le fermate (non ci sono cartelli). Se avete poco tempo, andate a quello di Peles di castello, tutt'altra storia. Piccola fila e numerose scale per entrare, senza altro accesso possibile. Biglietto da prendere in anticipo ma possibile, con fila, anche lì. Sono andato di venerdì mattina, 30 Min dopo l'apertura. Sotto, prima dell'ingresso, c'è una piazzetta con qualche chiosco, uno dei quali ha calamite a 5 lei, ma che non fa pagare con carta, prezzo molto onesto, a differenza del castello, tuttavia. Visitatelo solo se non avete di meglio da fare, altrimenti una foto da fuori va benissimo!!! Buon soggiorno in Transilvania.
