(Translated by Google) A very beautiful castle with a beautifully landscaped park. It's best to book tickets directly on the official website; please be aware of this. There are also third-party vendors. You can also buy tickets from a machine on-site. The castle is about 30 minutes from Brasov by car, and there is plenty of parking available. There are private parking lots directly around the castle, but these are significantly more expensive. The best option is to drive past the castle and turn right; there you'll find a municipal parking lot (Parcare cu Plata) where parking costs 5 Lei per hour, which is about €1. The parking lot is about a 5-minute walk from the castle entrance. I've included pictures of the parking lot. Unfortunately, the other parking options are considerably more expensive. You then walk up to the castle, where there's a wait before you can enter. Once inside, you tour the castle and get a glimpse of the various rooms and exhibits. The story of Bran is explained really well. Unfortunately, it was very busy, and there were long waits. There were people who pushed in line, which wasn't great. It would be better to switch to online tickets with time slots to better manage access. That's why I'm only giving it 4 stars. The long wait wasn't pleasant and could be handled better. Other attractions already use this system. At the end, you absolutely have to visit the torture chamber. You need a separate ticket for this. It's definitely worth seeing all the instruments. Price-wise, it's really great value for what you get to see. (Original) Ein sehr schönes Schloss mit einem grün angelegten Park. Die Tickets am besten direkt auf der offiziellen Webseite buchen , bitte darauf achten. Es gibt auch Drittanbieter. Vor Ort kann man auch Tickets am Automaten ziehen. Das Schloss ist von Brasov ca. 30 min mit dem Auto entfernt und vor Ort gibt es genügend Parkplätze. Es gibt direkt um das Schloss private Stellflächen die aber deutlich teurer sind. Am besten am Schloss vorbei fahren und rechts abbiegen dort gibt es einen Parkplatz von der Gemeinde ( Parcare cu Plata) und die Kosten für das Parken belaufen sich auf 5 Lei pro Stunde das ist ca. 1 €. Der Parkplatz ist ca. 5 min Fußweg zum Eingang vom Schloss entfernt. Ich habe Bilder vom Parkplatz eingefügt. Leider sind die anderen Plätze deutlich teurer. Man läuft dann rauf zum Schloss und dort gibt es eine Wartezeit bis zum Einlass. Sobald man drinnen ist durchläuft man das Schloss und erhält Einblick in die verschiedenen Räume und Ausstellungstücke. Die Geschichte über Bran wird wirklich toll erklärt. Leider war wirklich viel los und es kam zu längeren Wartezeiten. Es gab Menschen die sich vor gedrängelt haben, was nicht so toll war. Es wäre besser man stellt auf Onlineticket mit Zeitslot um, damit man den Zugang besser regeln kann. Deshalb gebe ich auch nur 4 Sterne. Die längere Wartezeit war nicht schön und kann besser geregelt werden. Andere Attraktionen nutzen dies auch bereits. Am Ende muss man definitiv noch die Folterkammer besuchen. Hierfür wird ein extra Ticket benötigt. Es lohnt sich auf jeden Fall die ganzen Instrumente zu sehen. Preislich ist es wirklich ein super Preis für das was man zu sehen bekommt.

(Translated by Google) If you like monuments, I recommend it, although Dracula lived in a different castle - today it is ruins, but there is a beautiful park at the foot (Original) Jak ktoś lubi zabytki to polecam chociaż Drakula mieszkał w innym zamku - dzisiaj to ruiny natomiast piękny park u podnóża

Really cool castel, it’s a bit tricky to get there if you don’t have a car but here are the tips If you are going by train you have to move to the autobus station #2 is infront of the youth stadium, you buy tickets to bran and from that point on is pice of cake, each bus leaves with 40 min of difference, making it convinent and easy (regarding price 10 lei go and back 2 euros-ish) Continuing with my evaluation of the castel, it’s an amazing structure leaves you thinking how did they build this wonder, there is a secret passage that connects two floor that makes you wonder if all the fights and events that happened in this castle, sadly it has nothing to do with Dracula, but still is a really cool experience to see and appreciate, mainly because of its tight relationship with the royal family, aside from that is a real touristic trap, it’s packed with people without control or schedule you walk from a room full with people to another one, that why I decreased my evaluation.

(Translated by Google) a very nice castle from the outside, but inside it was a bit rough..there are a few rooms, nothing wow, and I paid 30 lei just to take a 2 minute elevator ride..it's better to look at it from the outside, it's cheaper and more advantageous (Original) un castel foarte fain din exterior, dar in interior a fost cam țeapa..sunt cateva camere, mai nimic wow, si am dat 30 lei doar ca sa merg cu un lift 2 minute.. mai bine va uitati de afara la el e mai ieftin si mai avantajos

(Translated by Google) A lovely little castle, naturally with a vampire/Dracula theme. The castle has many beautiful rooms. From the balcony, you have a view of the inner courtyard. (Original) Schönes kleines Schloss natürlich wird hier das Thema Vampire bzw. Dracula aufgegriffen. In dem Schloss gibt es viele schöne Räume. Vom Balkon hat man eine Aussicht in den Innenhof

(Translated by Google) The castle is very beautiful. It has little, if anything, to do with Dracula. It has been renovated several times, and the furnishings are from the 1920s, when Queen Mary lived there. Unfortunately, during the summer, the influx of tourists makes visiting a bit difficult, as queues form in the castle's narrow passageways. (Original) Il castello è molto bello. Non ha molto se non nulla a che vedere con Dracula. È stato trasformato più volte e l'arredamento è quello degli anni venti, quando nel castello ci abitava la regina Mary. Purtroppo durante l'estate l'affluenza turistica rende la visita un po' difficile per il formarsi di code negli stretti passaggi del castello.

(Translated by Google) Holy cow! It's not even peak season yet, but the place is already packed with visitors. Without any regard for those already in the castle, they're just squeezing in more. You can easily have to wait five minutes in the corridors between rooms before you can move on. The extra "torture instruments" and "time tunnel" exhibits are nice. All in all, they're just making money here. But it has absolutely nothing to do with culture or even with Vlad Tepes himself!!! (Original) Alter Schwede! Es ist noch keine Saison, aber hier stapeln sich die Besucher. Ohne Rücksicht auf bereits im Schloß befindliche Besucher, wird nachgeschoben. Auf den Gängen zwischen den Räumen steht man gern mal 5 Minuten, bevor es weiter geht. Das Zusatzprogramm von "Folterinstrumenten" und " Zeittunnel" ist nett. Alles in allem wird hier Kohle gemacht. Mit Kultur oder tatsächlich Vlad Tepes hat das alles aber auch so überhaupt nichts zu tun!!!
