After arriving in Bucharest, we drive to the gorgeous mountain town of Sinaia where we try our first Romanian dessert - Papanași! Known as the Romanian donut, papanasi are like a donut and covered in a sweet cheese sauce with fresh fruit preserves. This is only the beginning of our first impressions of Romanian food so stay tuned for more!
Then we visit Peleș Castle, which is known as one of the most beautiful castles in Romania and Europe! While at the castle, we explore the inside and the gardens of the luxurious home of King Carol I of Romania. Afterwards, we continue our road trip to the stunning town of Brașov.

As you can see, even on your map from the video, Peles Castle is in not in Transylvania, but in Wallachia (Sinaia town). You can visit also the other regions of Romania, I invite you to Iasi, in Moldova region.
Wow...I had no idea Romania was so picturesque...I think I've seen Dracula (the Gary Oldman version) one too many times. The countryside was breathtakingly beautiful and the castle reminded me of Neuschwanstein, with the wooden carvings etc. Thanks for another wonderful vlog! Pure escapism...
Romania is so beautiful! 🇷🇴 Can’t wait to show y’all more!
Whoop whoop been waiting for this series! So excited to see y’all traveling through one of our favorite places 💖 much love you guys!
Yayaa!! This will be a fun series - love Romania 🇷🇴 🤗
You miss Romania :))
I greet you with great love, friends from overseas.
I was thinking of giving a sign of life, I'm still alive :)))
I have now discovered this beautiful couple and here is the surprise, a very pleasant surprise...to meet you again here.
The same love!
in Romania hospitality is the most important thing...if you are in one town or villge say hello.. and the ppl will help..sheltered feed ..
Peleș Castle is in Wallachia region, not in Transylvania region
We realize that Peles and Sinaia are in Wallachia - we showed it on the map in the beginning of the video as not in Transylvania. I don't think we ever said it was explicitly in Transylvania, but can see how that could be misinterpreted.

Yes, you're perfectly right! Thank you, i think that it was a misunderstanding ! Mea culpa! There are so many foreign tourists and they made this kind of mistake, to mix it up the both region and put Peleș Castle in region of Transilvania .
Nice of you two to pay attention to detail.
Transylvania region begins from Brașov. Thank you again!
They have to actually cook the papanasi so it's not super reasonable to expect instant service. And one of the ingredients of the dough is cottage cheese so it's not really a doughnut.
Ah, thanks for the info! Makes sense that it took a while because they make them fresh. Honestly, that was worth it because those were the best papanasi we had during our time in Romania :)
Romania 🇷🇴 it is very beautiful country, has a lot of spectacular landscapes, you will find here culture, traditions, history, friendly and very welcoming people. Thanks for these wonderful images and information presented about Romania! You won a new romanian subscriber, all the best 👍👏
Papanasi are always made fresh, so there's no way to have them fast. Even if the dough is ready, it takes a bit to cook - don't order them if you're in a hurry :)
Salut first time in Romania good job 🇺🇸
I love Romania, I had some really great time there some years ago. I agree that Peleş Castle is the most beautiful in the country as a package, especially its interior is amazing (if only exterior were seen, I would say that Corvin Castle in Hunedoara is even better). It looks like a Bavarian or Black Forest Romantic Castle as people from Germany built it. Sadly you didn't show the Pelişor nearby (its exterior is very special, incredible) as it is only some steps away from Peleş, just like an interesting restaurant in Medieval style (and maybe even food?). I am looking forward to your next videos from this beautiful country, your map of the roadtrip at the beginning looks very promising with some amazing sights in the way.
Corvin Castle was actually built by the Hunyad family, so not German.
@@dacian_1346, Bavarian or Black Forest Romantic Style Castle referred only to Peleş and Pelişor in Carpathians. I wrote that Corvin Castle's exterior is even better than Peleş's in my opinion (but Peleş has one of the most amazing interiors I have ever seen in any castle). I know that Corvin Castle was built by the Hunyad family and that Matthias Corvinus was King of Hungary and Croatia, born in Transylvania in Cluj-Napoca that was part of Hungary at that time (until 1920 when it became a part of the Kingdom of Romania). Vajdahunyad Castle in Budapest also has one element of Corvin Castle in itself (as one-third of the building, I think).
Agreed, specifically the interior of Peleş Castle is one of the best we've seen in the world. We love the traditional looking castles with a moat, drawbridge and all, but this one as a package is just stunning. Glad you're looking forward to the series; we have about 7 more videos coming up from Transylvania :)
Peles Castle was not built by Transylvanian Saxons, it was built in late 19th century in Wallachia by the king of Romania. The people who worked at the construction of the castle were from lots of ethnicities not just germans, there were also romanians, hungarians, czechs, englishmen, poles, frenchmen, italians and a few more.
@@Zdamaneta, this is all true but this King of Romania (Carol I, Karl of Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen, for whom Peleş Castle was built) was a German, originally from Baden-Württemberg, and that's why he wanted to have a castle in German architectural styles of the time of the Romanticism in the 19th century, similar time to Ludwig's II reign in Bavaria.
I just discovered your Romania travel blogs and I am really enjoying them. I went with my wife for the first time in 2017 when we too visited Brasov, Peles Castle, Tranfargarsen, Bran and Busteni. Such beautiful places, our favourites so far. You should also visit the coast too if you havent already. Constanta is really nice and Mamaia. For somewhere less busy Neptun (where we stayed).
Another wicked awesome video!!! I've not done much research about this part of the world, so I've very much looking forward to this series!!!
Thank you!! So glad you enjoyed it. We did a ton of research on Romania so we're excited to share these adventures with y'all! We have about 7 more videos coming up from Transylvania :)
You should definitely visit Oradea while you're there!
I suppose it feels a little spooky 👻 at night with thoughts of Bela Lugosi 🧛♂️ 🦇 .. but it's so beautiful. I recommend Abbot & Costello Meet Frankenstein for a humorous look at strange creatures in 🏰 ! Nice country 👍
Thanks for the rec, David! We get to explore Dracula’s Castle in next week’s video! 🧛♂️ 🇷🇴
David Ellis, in the Vlad Impaler's birth house (in amazing Medieval town of Sighişoara), it is intentionally spookier with on-off light moments and someone is lying/sleeping in a coffin to scare you when you approach there. Around the Bran Castle (known as Dracula's Castle although Vlad III. never lived there), it is amazing village with shops and a haunted house - there must be really amazing around the Halloween time with all parties and masks, I believe.
not far is the cross on Caraiman and the Sphinx you can visit them too
*WONDERFUL !!*
Thank you! Glad to hear you enjoyed it! 🇷🇴
There are other castles in Sinaia. Right next to the Peleș Castle, it's the Pelișor Castle, also built by Carol I, that is now used as residence for the royal family, but you should have taken some pictures of the outside, also a beautiful architecture! Right after the Pelișor Castle, it's the Foișor Castle, but I don't know if it's open for visitors, as it also belongs to the royal family.
And near the center of the town, is the much smaller Știrbey Castle, a museum.
I'm gonna have to check all that when I get there.....
A little fun fact for the video games enthusiasts watching this channel > Castle Dimitrescu from Resident Evil 8 was created solely based upon Peles Castle. Enjoy!
wow that makes me wanna play the game.
@@RomaniaSteve the action takes place in Romania also and the currency from the game that you use for Weapons and Upgrades are also from Romania. Enjoy!
omg the swing floating over the river in Vilnius!!!! We have been there twice but both of us were too chicken to get on the swing!
Ahhh, y'all should've got on the swing! Next time! We were luck with really no line so we could take our time a bit and enjoy it. The Baltics were so much fun!
This was great video,i bet you guys wanted to come earlier to castle.Hopefully you will discover more castles,it is so nice to see you guys enjoy hospitality in Europe.So much appreciated,hopefully one day i can come to USA to enjoy hospitality there too.Thank you for beautiful video as usual 😍😉🙏

Peles castle is in Wallachia not in Transylvania...
That Peleș castle is also my favorite from Romania. I like even where the castle is placed. 🤩
Thing is.. with like 7 (to maybe 10) minutes of driving (from Sinaia).. you could have also visit Bușteni (a small town) that also holds around it.. a castle named the Cantacuzino castle (google it even for curiosity sake). Not as imposing as the Peleș castle.. but still beautiful enough.. and also with a beautiful view to some mountains 🤩 (when staying in front of the castle) / It is worth visiting too. 👍
i Like Travell..

❤️🥰😘😍
Sinaia - The City of Kings
Can you give us some info on your car rental experience
Hello
Nah, never complain about the service at a restaurant/cafe unless it waw really bad. You could have just requested them to get the desserts then n there, explaining you're getting late for the castle. Simple. Instead, you chose ro savor n enjoy the service and yet complain, eveh though not directly. Not cool!
"Boobies"! 😂
