Sighișoara is known for its well-preserved fortified old town, designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
One of the most famous connections of Sighișoara is with Vlad the Impaler, who allegedly was born in Sighișoara in the 15th century. The house where he lived is now a museum dedicated to Vlad's life and the town's history.
Sighișoara's old town is a prime example of a medieval fortified city, with its walls, towers, and bastions all remarkably intact. The town boasts several historic churches, including the Gothic-style Church on the Hill and the 17th-century Orthodox Cathedral.

On the last day of the tour, you will properly visit Bran Castle, and learn about its history, the reason why it was built there, and many more.
With a history of more than 6 centuries, Bran Castle became widely known as Dracula's Castle, mainly due to Bram Stoker's Dracula. Here, you will discover the history of Vlad the Impaler and the connection between Vlad Tepes and Bram Stoker's Dracula.

The last monument of the tour is Snagov Monastery, a historical and religious site located on an island in Snagov Lake. It is most famously known as the alleged final resting place of Vlad the Impaler. Although there is no solid evidence that Vlad is buried in the monastery, it remains a symbol of Romanian cultural heritage.
After a great Romania tour and a party at Bran Castle, your Halloween in Transylvania tour has come to an end. We hope you enjoyed the experience and maybe see you next year!
