Drácula castle - We went by train from Bucarest to Brasov, very easy and cheap, when we got there (Brasov) we took a Uber to bran Castle wich cost near 100 lei. The Castle is nice, is not cheap, has a lot of history, and is very Crowded lots and lots of turists like us. Although Its Nice, i think is a trap for turists, peles Castle is thousand Times better. We went back by bus to Brasov and then train to Bucarest. One full day.
