(Translated by Google) The castle's only redeeming feature is undoubtedly that it inspired the author of Dracula. Otherwise, there's nothing to recommend. Tickets are expensive, the wait to get in is endless, and the visit consists of following the crowds ahead of you while being jostled by those behind you. The crowds are denser than a concert pit, the rooms are poorly presented, and most of the information panels are rendered illegible by the throngs of people pushing and shoving from one room to the next. My only regret: not turning back before going in. (Original) Le seul atout du château est certainement d'avoir inspiré l'auteur de Dracula. Du reste, rien n'est recommandable. Les billets sont chers, l'attente pour entrer est interminable et la visite consiste à suivre les visiteurs qui vous devancent en étant poussés par ceux qui vous suivent. La foule est plus dense que dans la fosse d'un concert, les salles visités revêtent une mauvaise mise en scène et les panneaux explicatifs sont pour la plupart étant rendus illisibles par la foule qui s'entasse pour passer d'une salle à l'autre. Mon unique regret : ne pas avoir fait demi tour avant d'entrer.

The castle is nice but you have to wait in line for 30-40 min to take an elevator to go down and see...absolutly nothing, only pictures on the walls and you end up in the survenir store. They trick you at the entrance to buy for the fast lane. 20 lei is the cost to take an elevator. Big scam. Go with standard ticket you wait a lot in line but you get to see the same castle. There are better museums in the Nordic countries and the management should go there to take lessons

(Translated by Google) The castle looks nice, so we were looking forward to seeing it. Unfortunately, on Mondays they only open from 12 o'clock, we didn't want to wait. So the tour was only through the fence... (Original) Hrad hezký vypadá, tak jsme se těšili, že si ho prohlédneme. Bohužel v pondělí mají otevřeno až od 12 hodin, to se nám nechtělo čekat. Takže prohlídka jen přes plot...

(Translated by Google) An excellent example of effective promotion: It is advertised as Dracula's castle: it has nothing to do with Dracula. In return, we learn a lot about the Romanian royal family. Overcrowded, overpriced, queues...up to an hour. It is beautiful, but there is a more beautiful, more honest and less crowded castle in Transylvania. (Original) A hatékony promóció kitűnő példája: Drakula váraként van reklámozva: semmi köze Drakulához. Cserébe jó sok mindent meg tudunk a román királyi családról. Túlzsúfolt, túlárazott, sorbanállós..akár egy órát is. Szép, de ennél szebb, őszintébb és kevésbé tömegnyomorított vár is van Erdélyben.

(Translated by Google) Drama... crowds, a sea of ​​people, over two hours of waiting (Monday at 11:30 AM – we arrived before the opening, and we bought tickets online). The castle is tiny. The views from it are the same as from any hill surrounding it, or even worse. Inside, it's an open-air museum, with only average equipment. It's a fictionally named Dracula's Castle, so don't expect to learn about its history, which is a good thing, because this castle is full of history. You can't move freely inside the castle because of the crowds, there's a line to each room – I don't know how it can meet any requirements, even fire safety – and there are so many wooden structures… If you're not a tourist, go for it, but to anyone looking for something different and avoiding crowded attractions, I advise you: run! There are beautiful areas and trails in the national park all around. Easy and challenging – for everyone. Much better experiences and views. (Original) Dramat… ścisk, morze ludzi, ponad dwie godziny czekania (poniedziałek godzina 11:30 - jeszcze przed otwarciem byliśmy na miejscu, a bilety kupione online). Zamek malutki. Widoki z niego, jak z każdego okalającego go wzgórza, a nawet gorszy. W środku - skansen, średnio wyposażony. To fikcyjnie nazywany zamek Drakuli, nie ma co liczyć na poznanie tej historii i dobrze, bo ten zamek ma zapełnienia historię. Wewnątrz zamku nie można się swobodnie poruszać, bo jest tak dużo ludzi, do każdej komnaty kolejka - nie wiem jak to może spełniać jakiekolwiek wymogi, chociażby przeciwpożarowe - a dużo tam drewnianych konstrukcji… jeśli ktoś nie umie w turystykę, to niech idzie, ale wszystkim szukającym czegoś innego i stroniącym od atrakcji dla tłumów - radzę: uciekajcie! Dookoła są piękne tereny i szlaki w parku narodowym. Łatwe i trudne - dla każdego. O wiele lepsze doznania i widoki.

(Translated by Google) Monday, August 4th. They open at 12:30...it's 1:30 PM and we've only moved 30 meters in line. You buy your ticket in advance and when you enter the venue you're met with a kilometer-long queue with hundreds of people. There's a fast-track pass that costs twice the price of a ticket—a rip-off. Poor organization and management...even with advance tickets you can't escape the death queue. Think twice before coming and when to go. (Original) Lunes 4 de agosto. Abren a las 12,30...son las 13,30 y hemos avanzado 30 metros de cola unicamente. Compras la entrada antes y al entrar al recinto te encuentras la sorpresa, cola kilómetrica con cientos de personas. Existe un pase rápido que vale el doble de la entrada, un robo. Mala organización y gestión del lugar...ni aunque tengas entradas anticipadas te libras de la cola de la muerte. Pensarlo dos veces antes de venir y en que fechas.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful location on the city side, the interior design is very interesting due to the differences in levels, it is worth seeing, we went for opening because they are very crowded after 1-2 hours, and it is impossible to move around on the internal spiral staircases, it was worth it, a great sight (Original) Gyönyörű helyen a helyoldalban,belül nagyon érdekes a kialakitás a szintkülönbségek miatt, érdemes megnézni,nyitásra mentünk,mert 1-2 óra múlva rengeten vannak,és a belső csigalépcsőkön lehetetlen közlekedni,érdemes volt,szuper látványosság

(Translated by Google) A beautiful place. Although the price is slightly higher and there is a lot of traffic, this castle is worth visiting. (Original) Nádherné místo. Ačkoliv cena je mírně vyšší a je zde velký pohyb návštěvníků, stojí zato tento hrad navštívit.
