Overview

What a great experience to admire wild brown bears on the side of the road!

Wow!!! Where is that? It's not far from Poienari Fortress, the real Dracula's Fortress, so you have the chance to better explore the country of Dracula with one of the best private guides in Romania!

We know the best places where the bears wait!

Before that, we admire Curtea de Arges Monstery, the place where the kings of Romania are buried and we climb to see Poienari fortress (the real fortress of Vlad the Impaler)!
