Peles Castle Romania Visiting this BEAUTIFUL Castle in Transylvania

This time we are visiting the beautiful Peles Castle in Romania. This was our first-ever trip to Romania and WOW were we surprised at how beautiful and cheap it was. Peles Castle is incredible!
Join us in part 1 of this Romania weekend road trip.
Arriving in Bucharest we grabbed a hire car ( you could go by train) and drove the 2 hours up into the Carpathian mountains to arrive at Peles Castle.
This first stop is part of our weekend trip to Romania so make sure you check out our other videos on this region.
Pele Castle is really important in Romanian history and was the former summer residence of the Romanian royal family. Built on the wish of the first king of Romania, King Carol I it is just a stunning Castle to visit and the inside is just beautiful.
Parking is 20 Leu about £3.70. You have a 15-minute walk up into the grounds of the castle and it's not to steep if you have mobility issues.
Walking around the grounds is free but you will need a buy a ticket to go inside. A ground floor ticket is 30 Leu and both floors are 60 Leu. Make sure you do the full tour! It very worth it. Using a camera or filming is charged at another 35 Leu.
There is a second castle to visit on the grounds and this is included in your ticket. Pelisor Castle was the summer house of the last Queen of Romania and was built in the early 20th Century. The highlight of the castle is the golden room. Floor to ceiling gold. Sadly it was closed when we visited.
You will likely spend half a day seeing all the sights and grounds at the castle.

I Played Resident Evil Village, i never knew that Castle Dimitrescu is based upon this Castle in real life. I knew the game was set in Romania !

Peles Castle is in Wallachia not in Transylvania

[@MemorySeekers]

Hi thanks for comment yes seems to be conflicting views on if it’s in or out. Wiki says on an existing medieval route linking Transylvania and Wallachia so you are probably right. Right on the edge. Good for people to know and discuss! 😊
