Or Bran Castle as it's also known.. It actually doesn't look like ou might think Dracula's Castle should (or have I just seen one too many movies?) Being white and rather pretty. However it is well worth a trip - if you can cope with the steps up to it.

Nice entry btw DD

Thanks Swiv, yeah the steps are a bit of a problem. Mind you as I was there on a ski trip the exercise up the steps did us good. smiley - smiley

Well we had to work off the previous night's rather large pizza and alcohol session. (though I would like to point out that the only Romanian alcohol we had was the wine - I am not a fan of palinka) smiley - smiley

If I remember correctly we mixed the palinka with wine and vodka.

UMMMMMMMM. My dad still has nearly a full bottle of the stuff, that I got him for Christmas smiley - smiley I have heard though that palinka is good heated up with honey. My taste for hot drinks extends to gluhwein, and for 'local' drinks to Amarula mmmmmmmmmm smiley - smiley

It's NOT Brun Castle, IT'S BRAN Castle! not also , but only Bran, please don't post something you're not sure about! I'm Romanian coming from an area not far from it, have seen it at least 4 times and there's never been any other denomination for this castle! It's only Bran Castle!
