Reviews for Bran Castle

(Translated by Google) We didn't have to wait long to get in, but we purchased tickets online. The castle is famous for its legendary connection to the figure of Dracula, but it's more of a royal residence. It features rather uncluttered spaces and basic furnishings, less opulent than one might expect. The rooms, small and arranged in a labyrinthine fashion, create a fascinating yet at times dispersive experience. Rather than a gloomy fortress, it conveys the idea of ​​a garrison controlling the surrounding territory, immersed in a picturesque green setting. Some rooms house interactive exhibits dedicated to Romanian legends, which are interesting but difficult to fully appreciate due to the overcrowding. The high attendance makes it difficult to stop and read and soak up the atmosphere, which would be essential to fully enjoy the visit. (Original) Non abbiamo fatto troppa fila per entrare ma con i biglietti acquistati on line. Il Castello è famoso per il legame leggendario con la figura di Dracula ma è piuttosto una residenza regia. Si presenta con spazi piuttosto sgombri e un arredamento essenziale, meno ricco di quanto ci si potrebbe aspettare. Le stanze, piccole e disposte in modo labirintico, creano un percorso affascinante ma a tratti dispersivo. Più che una fortezza cupa, trasmette l’idea di un presidio per il controllo del territorio circostante, immerso in un suggestivo scenario verde. Alcune stanze ospitano allestimenti interattivi dedicati alle leggende della Romania, interessanti ma difficili da apprezzare appieno a causa del sovraffollamento. L’affluenza molto alta rende complicato fermarsi a leggere e calarsi nell’atmosfera, cosa che sarebbe fondamentale per godere appieno della visita.

(Translated by Google) The interior offers very little, if anything; depending on the time of day, you can expect a long queue. Entry isn't cheap. The views of the castle from the garden are nice, but that's about it. (Original) El interior aporta bastante poco o nada, depende de la hora hay que hacer una cola importante. La entrada no es barata. Molan las vistas del castillo desde el jardín pero poco más.

(Translated by Google) Visited on a Monday in August. A 1-hour line (even though we had purchased tickets in advance). No audio guide available! The traffic continued inside, through narrow corridors, with very empty white walls, a constant up-and-down that led to rooms without any particular historical objects. There are no sources proving that Vlad the Impaler lived here, but the first room lists him as one of the owners. More white rooms filled with Dracula puppets. A trap. Avoid it and use your time to visit the much more interesting and authentic surrounding villages. (Original) Visitato un lunedì di Agosto. 1 ora di fila (anche se avevamo preso i biglietti in anticipo). Nessuna audio-guida disponibile! Il traffico continuava all'interno, tra corridoi stretti, pareti bianche e molto vuote, un su e giù continuo che portava in stanze senza particolari oggetti storici rilevanti. Non ci sono fonti che dimostrano che Vlad l'impalatore abbia vissuto qui, ma nella prima stanza lo inseriscono come uno dei proprietari. Ulteriori stanzine bianche riempite di pupazzi rappresentanti Dracula. Una trappola. Evitatelo e usate il vostro tempo per visitare i paesini nei dintorni molto più interessanti e autentici.

(Translated by Google) We were completely disappointed. It's not worth paying the entrance fee to see the inside, much less waiting in line for over an hour. For anyone who wants to see it, I encourage you to just admire it from the outside and save your money for another castle, like Peles Castle, for example. The inside is completely empty, and since there are no set entry times, it feels like you're part of a herd. (Original) Quedamos totalmente decepcionados. No merece la pena pagar la entrada para verlo por dentro y mucho menos comerse 1h y pico de cola. Para todos aquellos que queráis verlo os animo a que lo hagáis por fuera y os ahorréis el dinero para otro castillo, como por ejemplo, el de Peles. Por dentro está totalmente vacío y al no tener horarios de entrada parece que formes parte de un rebaño.

Touristic place. If you dont want to spend the whole morning/ afternoon queeing and dont mind paying 12 euros more for entering faster go ahead.if not, either you pay the total amount of 30€ or you just be patience and wait for the endless queue. Had i known it, I would have stopped outside, take a pic and continue visiting other places where the rich people dont get benefits. We have also paid for our entrance and think it would be fair to enter in time slots.

(Translated by Google) If it were possible to give 0 stars, I would. Tickets are already not cheap - 90 lei, they offer to go faster if they add 60 lei. We did not pay extra. We have been standing for 2 hours. The impression is completely spoiled. I will not recommend this place to anyone and will never come here again. (Original) Если бы можно было поставить 0 звезд - я бы поставила. Билеты итак стоят не дешево 90 лей, предлагается пройти побыстрее если добавит 60 лей. Мы не стали доплачивать. Стоим уже 2 часа. Впечатление испорчено окончательно. Никому не порекомендую это место и никогда не приеду сюда еще раз.
