(Translated by Google) A fascinating place because of the history of Dracula. The castle itself attracts many tourists! It's worth a visit, however some parts require an extra fee and I don't see the point in charging extra for that. (Original) Lugar fascinante pela história do Drácula. Por si só o castelo já atrai diversos turistas! Vale a visita, porém algumas partes são pagas a parte e não vejo sentido cobrar a mais por isso.

(Translated by Google) A textbook tourist trap, straight out of a book. It's not even Vlad's castle; he only passed through here once to get gas. I only saw it from the outside, which, hey, is kind of cute, but the faces of the tourists on the bus back were ones of defeat and resignation. Do yourselves a favor: have a coffee or some Romanian soup outside and enjoy the view; you'll be better off. The place costs 17 euros, and there's a kind of shabby Romanian Dracula bazaar nearby that would make Stoker weep. (Original) Trampa para turistas de manual, de libro, ni siquiera es el castillo de Vlad, él solo paso por aquí una vez para echar gasolina. Tan solo lo vi por fuera, que oye, tiene su gracia, pero las caras de los turistas en el bus de regreso eran de derrota y resignación, haceos un favor, tomaos un café o una sopita rumana desde fuera con las vistas y saldréis ganando. 17 euritos vale el amigo, y alrededor hay un especie de bazar cutre rumano de Drácula que haría llorar a Stoker.

(Translated by Google) You feel like a tourist, but in a bad way. The castle is beautiful, but they could have left out the whole Dracula section, which detracts from the overall experience. (Original) Te sientes como un turista pero en el mal sentido. El castillo es precioso pero se podrían ahorrar toda la parte de Drácula que desmerece lo que visitas

Definetely not worth the visit. Just a tourist trap and the highlight was a torture museum where you had to pay extra for.

Andrew was a well-versed guide with tons of knowledge to offer without becoming dull. His sense of humor was well-received by our group of four. We were fortunate to come to the castle in March when the crowds are significantly less. The guided tour was wonderful, highly recommended

(Translated by Google) It's cool, the tickets are expensive and then there are rooms that cost extra. (Original) Está chulo, son caras las entradas y luego hay salas que van a parte.

(Translated by Google) In fact, Count Dracula only stayed in this castle once. It's interesting from the outside, but there's nothing to see inside. A castle like many others. Unreasonably expensive tickets for the visit. 18 euros to see four rooms. Otherwise, there are nice stalls outside where they sell quality cheese, sausages and other delicacies. (Original) Всъщност граф Дракула е отсядал само един път в този замък. Отвън е интересен, но отвътре няма, какво да се види. Замък като много други. Неоправдано скъпи билети за посещението. 18 евро, за да видя четири стаи. Иначе отвън има хубави сергии, където продават качествени кашкавал, колбаси и други вкусотии.

(Translated by Google) This location offers a remarkable experience, particularly suitable for short stays, especially if you're staying in Brasov. While the castle is the main attraction, the surrounding area is equally worthy of exploration, with a large garden and numerous benches. At the ticket office, you can pay either in cash or by credit card, the latter option facilitated by an integrated POS system on a tablet for ticket issuance. Regarding parking, a low-cost parking area is available, ensuring convenient access to the structure. There are also several souvenir shops, including one inside the castle. I highly recommend a visit to those who wish to deepen their knowledge of the site and appreciate the historical context. (Original) Questa località offre un'esperienza di notevole interesse, particolarmente indicata per soggiorni di breve durata, soprattutto se si soggiorna a Brasov. Sebbene il castello rappresenti l'attrazione principale, l'area circostante è altrettanto meritevole di esplorazione, con un ampio giardino e numerose panchine a disposizione. Presso la biglietteria, è possibile effettuare il pagamento sia in contanti che tramite carta di credito, quest'ultima opzione facilitata da un sistema integrato con POS su tablet per l'emissione dei biglietti. Per quanto concerne la disponibilità di parcheggi, è possibile usufruire di un'area di sosta a un costo contenuto, garantendo un comodo accesso alla struttura. Sono inoltre presenti diversi negozi di souvenir, incluso quello all'interno del castello. Consiglio vivamente una visita a coloro che desiderano approfondire la conoscenza del luogo e apprezzano il contesto storico.

Excellent

(Translated by Google) A complete rip-off. Apart from the castle itself, which is old and in excellent condition, there's absolutely no connection, no reference to, no representation of Dracula as such. Even the link to Vlad the Impaler is barely explained. The optional tunnel is just a disguised exit from the castle with interactive screens, and it's made of concrete, not stone, please. Around forty euros to visit a very basic castle, the kind you see all over Europe. In short, a tourist trap. (Original) Une véritable fumisterie. A part le château qui est ancien et en très bon état de conservation, il n'y a absolument aucun rapport, aucun rappel, aucune représentation de Dracula à proprement dit. Même le rapprochement avec Vlad l'empaleur n'est que très peu expliqué. Le tunnel en option -> une sortie du château déguisé avec des écrans interactifs et en béton pas en pierre svp. Une quarantaine d'euros pour visiter un château des plus basique comme on en voit partout en Europe. Bref un attrape touriste.

It was ok I think it’s overrated and if I knew I would happily skip it. Unless you are a big Dracula fan I don’t see what’s the big deal. Luckily I came in a dead season and mid week so I had the castle to myself thanks god I didn’t have to stand in long lines for this

(Translated by Google) I visited Bran Castle about a year ago and only now realize I've never left a review. It's a shame, because it was one of the most fascinating places I saw during my trip to Romania. The castle is truly evocative even from afar. It sits on a rocky hill and is surrounded by a beautiful natural landscape, with forests and mountains that create an almost fairytale atmosphere. As you approach, you immediately sense its medieval charm, with towers, walls, and passageways that seem to have been lifted from ancient history. Inside, the tour is very interesting. The rooms are well-preserved and furnished with furniture and objects that tell the story of life in the castle in centuries past. Walking through narrow corridors, wooden staircases, and small rooms truly gives you the feeling of stepping back in time. Of course, the castle is also famous for its connection to the legend of Dracula, which makes the visit even more intriguing and engaging for many visitors. Beyond the myth, however, the castle has a very interesting real history that is worth discovering during your visit. I was also very impressed by the views from some parts of the castle: the surrounding landscape is truly beautiful and makes the experience even more special. A year later, I can say that it's a place I still remember fondly. If you're visiting Romania, I think it's definitely worth a visit. (Original) Ho visitato il Castello di Bran circa un anno fa e solo adesso mi rendo conto di non aver mai lasciato una recensione. È un peccato, perché è stato uno dei luoghi più affascinanti che ho visto durante il mio viaggio in Romania. Il castello è davvero suggestivo già da lontano. Si trova su una collina rocciosa ed è circondato da un paesaggio naturale molto bello, tra boschi e montagne che rendono l’atmosfera quasi fiabesca. Avvicinandosi si percepisce subito il suo fascino medievale, con torri, mura e passaggi che sembrano usciti da una storia antica. All’interno il percorso di visita è molto interessante. Le stanze sono ben conservate e arredate con mobili e oggetti che raccontano la vita nel castello nei secoli passati. Camminare tra corridoi stretti, scale in legno e piccole sale dà davvero la sensazione di fare un salto indietro nel tempo. Ovviamente il castello è famoso anche per il legame con la leggenda di Dracula, cosa che rende la visita ancora più curiosa e coinvolgente per molti visitatori. Al di là del mito, però, il castello ha una storia reale molto interessante e vale la pena scoprirla durante la visita. Mi hanno colpito molto anche i panorami che si vedono da alcune parti del castello: il paesaggio intorno è davvero bellissimo e rende l’esperienza ancora più speciale. A distanza di un anno posso dire che è un posto che ricordo ancora con piacere. Se si visita la Romania, secondo me è una tappa che vale assolutamente la pena fare.
