Most people say that if they ever go on a tour of Eastern Europe, one of the countries they would like to visit is Romania. This is a good choice, since Romania has so much to offer. It is also close to many historically significant areas of the last few centuries.
There is a part of Romania that people really ought to go and see, and that is Transylvania, Romania. This is not only because of its historical value, but it does have some very impressive castles and other places to see. One of those is Bran Castle, but there are so many more.
Part of the appeal is also that you can find many maps showing the history of Transylvania but also the general history of Eastern Europe. There are also many
excellent published books out there for people to read on the subject.
