(Translated by Google) OMG! Okay, I'll try a review. First of all, we were lucky to arrive early: we got a parking spot, quickly bought tickets from the machine, and the queue at the castle entrance was relatively short… a few hours later, all the queues were many times longer (including traffic chaos). The castle's concept seems to be to let in as many people as possible to completely fill the castle with crowds 🙂. Well, we knew it was a tourist hotspot, and complaining about it would be pretty unfair. The tourist scenery you see there is quite impressive in itself. In pictures, the castle looks much more imposing than it actually is. In reality, it's rather small. The tour is well-designed so that you get to see a lot while still managing to get a lot of people through. Of course, it would be nicer to have the castle to yourself, but a lot of people want to see this place. It is worth seeing, after all. In any case, we had a lovely morning! (Original) OMG! Okay, ich versuche mal eine Rezension. Zuallererst hatten wir Glück, dass wir früh da waren: Parkplatz bekommen, zügig Tickets am Automaten gekauft und die Warteschlange am Schlosseinlass war relativ kurz …. ein paar Stunden später waren alle Warteschlangen um ein vielfaches länger (inclusive Verkehrschaos). Das Schlosskonzept besteht anscheinend darin, möglichst viele Menschen hereinzulassen, um das Schloss komplett mit Menschenmasse zu füllen 🙂. Naja, wir wussten ja, dass es ein touristischer Hotspot ist und sich dann darüber zu beschweren, wäre ja auch ziemlich unfair. Die touristische Szenerie, die man dort zu sehen bekommt, ist an sich ja auch schon sehenswert. Auf Bildern sieht das Schloss wesentlich mächtiger aus, als es eigentlich ist. In der Realität ist dieses eher klein. Der Rundgang ist gut konzipiert, so dass man viel zu sehen bekommt und gleichzeitig sehr viele Menschen durchgeschleust werden können. Klar wäre es schöner, wenn man alleine im Schloss wäre, aber diesen Ort wollen nunmal viele Menschen sehen. Er ist ja auch sehenswert. Wir hatten jedenfalls einen schönen Vormittag!

(Translated by Google) Overrun with tourists, you have to queue inside the castle to get from one room to another. The whole place is a tourist hotspot. Once seen, but not necessary. Prices are reasonable; there are many stalls selling souvenirs and the like in front of the castle. (Original) Zu überrannt von Touristen man steht im Schloß Schlange um von einen in das andere Zimmer zukommen.Der ganze Ort ist ein Touristen Hotspot. Einmal angeschaut und muss kein 2 mal sein.Preise sind in Ordnung vor dem Schloß gibt es viele Standeln mit Souvenirs und dergleichen.

They should move to selling tickets per 15 minute time slot and limit the entries as you pay for a ticket only to wait in line 45 minutes to access the castle. Once past this the experience is great, albeit a little crowded. The castle has an interesting history which is well displayed and beautiful castle grounds.

Just DON'T go after 10:00!! When visiting the most touristic site of a country you know it's going to be crowded, but this was of epic proportion. There was realy nothing of interest inside besides the smell of different brands of purfume, sweat and mold from the furniture. I visited at 12:00 on a tuesday in July and the best thing about it a was the exit sign. Masstourism at its peak!! And the joke of it all is that Vlad or Dracul never lived here. The worst experience so far in this beautiful country.

(Translated by Google) Worth seeing, even though it wasn't inhabited by Dracula. Nicely done and designed for large crowds. (Original) Sehenswert, trotz das es nicht von Dracula bewohnt war. Schön gemacht und auf Massen ausgelegt.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful! A return to time and space, where Dracula was a welcoming "host" and full of pleasant surprises! Congratulations! (Original) Frumos! O întoarcere în timp și spațiu, unde Dracula a fost o "gazda" primitoare și plină de surprize plăcute! Felicitări!

(Translated by Google) A very simple castle in reality, but still steeped in legend. It's worth a visit at least once in a lifetime, even if the aura of mystery and epicness far surpasses reality... more beautiful in winter, in my opinion. (Original) In realtà castello molto semplice, ma comunque ricoperto di leggenda. Vale la visita almeno una volta nella vita anche se l'alone di mistero e l'epicità supera di gran lunga la realtà..più bello in inverno a mio parere.

(Translated by Google) The story behind it makes it a beautiful place. Definitely worth a visit. Very touristy. With many shops and restaurants around it. You need to be fit. Many steep slopes and stairs. The video footage and, of course, the Dracula room are extra fun. (Original) Het verhaal erachter maakt het een mooie plek. Zeker de moeite waard. Heel toeristisch. Met veel winkeltjes en eetgelegenheden eromheen. Je moet goed ter been zijn. Veel stijle hellingen en trappen. Extra leuk zijn de videobeelden en uiteraard de dracula kamer.

A very looooooong queue of 45 minutes, on a slope, just to see a fully crowded castle (you can’t even walk properly inside rooms), for an exorbitant price, to see nothing. Area is fulfilled by touristic and souvenir shops.

The management of the Castle should not let so many people inside at once. The place was SO extremely crowded that at some point we were all stuck in a room near some stairs, almost suffocating with the heat and the immense quantity of people in such a tiny room. And more were coming. the place and the history are beautiful if you get the opportunity to actually be able to breathe and look at it.
