But really the Dracula thing is such a small part of a visit here, and you’re likely to forget about it along the way. Saxon towns such as <a href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/destinationRedirector?atlasId=360409">Sighişoara</a>, <a href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/destinationRedirector?atlasId=360408">Sibiu</a>, Cluj-Napoca and <a href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/destinationRedirector?atlasId=360406">Braşov</a> evoke medieval life; all make fine hubs, with hikes, ski runs, horse markets and cute villages within an hour or two. Much of the fun comes from hikes through the interlocking Carpathians (sometimes called the Transylvanian Alps), which create a U-shape on all of Transylvania’s sides but the north. Skiing is best in the Bucegi Mountains’ Prahova Valley, but outdoors enthusiasts debate what’s best for summer fun –hiking to underground rivers of the Apuseni, rock climbing at Piatra Craiului National Park, biking atop the flat Bucegi plateau, exploring the largely unknown Retezat or hiking the knee-torturing Făgăraş.<br /><div class="mpuWrapper " id="mpuInContent"><div class="mpuInner"><div class="adContainer" id="adContainer_mpuInContent"><noscript> &lt;div&gt; &lt;a href="http://ad.doubleclick.net/jump/2009.lonelyplanet/rest-of-site;dcopt=ist;ctt=europe;cnty=romania;dest=transylvania;tnm=overview;sz=300x250;ord=123456789?"&gt; &lt;img src="http://ad.doubleclick.net/ad/2009.lonelyplanet/rest-of-site;dcopt=ist;ctt=europe;cnty=romania;dest=transylvania;tnm=overview;sz=300x250;ord=123456789?" alt="Advertising" width="300" height="250"/&gt; &lt;/a&gt; &lt;/div&gt; </noscript> </div></div></div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-jhS9DI-ecaQ/UaPHgSJl1OI/AAAAAAAAk5Q/CVIA6Mb-m10/s1600/Transylvania+Romania+5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="228" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-jhS9DI-ecaQ/UaPHgSJl1OI/AAAAAAAAk5Q/CVIA6Mb-m10/s320/Transylvania+Romania+5.jpg" width="320" /></a>Transylvania, part of <a href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/destinationRedirector?atlasId=360382">Romania</a> only since 1918, benefits from its diverse ancestors. Saxons occupied southern Transylvanian towns, and most villages you pass are dotted with fortified churches that date back half a millennium. Going an hour north into Székely Land and towns like <a href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/destinationRedirector?atlasId=360411">Târgu Mureş (Marosvásárhely)</a> with sizeable ethnic Hungarian communities, feels like going into a different country. Throughout you’re likely to spot many <a href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/destinationRedirector?atlasId=359975">Roma</a> villagers – identifiable by black cowboy hats on the men and extravagant red dresses on the women – who sometimes usher passers-by in for meals.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiyIYG_W1J9Dyq_RtIidZDKU3WqK-sZ5ZGkNWBpJh396V_ZykDdPt4LLFTGCxY3hAUoLgakNzp5pOvkOK878gj7spM3OVWTPXr2hksNJ4c67LmR1-9sSdFXJWC-XquYW9pwIaYj5Q-lfeBw/s1600/Transylvania+Romania+17.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="227" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiyIYG_W1J9Dyq_RtIidZDKU3WqK-sZ5ZGkNWBpJh396V_ZykDdPt4LLFTGCxY3hAUoLgakNzp5pOvkOK878gj7spM3OVWTPXr2hksNJ4c67LmR1-9sSdFXJWC-XquYW9pwIaYj5Q-lfeBw/s320/Transylvania+Romania+17.jpg" width="320" /></a>So much is in Transylvania – it’s no surprise that it’s often the only part of <a href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/destinationRedirector?atlasId=360382">Romania</a> experienced by tourists.<br />‘We are in Transylvania; and Transylvania is not <a href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/destinationRedirector?atlasId=358869">England</a>.

Even in cities where Audis zoom across highways under video-camera speed traps, Romanian life is defined by its sweet country heart. Most anywhere, you’ll spot horse-drawn buggies crossing the (often cratered) paved roads – up green mountains, past cone-shaped haystacks and herds of sheep – which bounce along as if the roads themselves are aliens to the land. And then there’s that Dracula thing. Many visitors, lured by bloodcurdling tales, make full trips out of <a href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/destinationRedirector?atlasId=360404">Transylvania</a>’s castles and lovely medieval Saxon towns like <a href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/destinationRedirector?atlasId=360409">Sighişoara</a>, where the ‘real Dracula’ (Vlad Ţepeş) first grew his teeth.<br /><br /><a name="more"></a><br /><div class="mpuWrapper " id="mpuInContent"><div class="mpuInner"><div class="adContainer" id="adContainer_mpuInContent"><a href="http://ad.doubleclick.net/click;h=v8/3c12/0/0/%2a/q;251609923;3-0;0;56529921;4307-300/250;45944093/45961311/1;;%7Eokv=;ctt=europe;cnty=romania;tnm=overview;rsi=J08781_10159;rsi=J08781_10291;rsi=J08781_10287;rsi=J08781_10052;rsi=J08781_10205;rsi=J08781_10335;rsi=J08781_10337;%7Esscs=%3fhttp://www.lonelyplanet.com/bookings/insurance.do?lpaffil=fbin1" target="_top"></a> </div></div></div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-_h8968kO4jk/Ty6kXb_7XII/AAAAAAAAB38/CKS6PHIFGr0/s1600/Romania.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="133" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-_h8968kO4jk/Ty6kXb_7XII/AAAAAAAAB38/CKS6PHIFGr0/s200/Romania.jpg" width="200" /></a><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-aoeGlDvc6W4/Ty6kX1JXu0I/AAAAAAAAB4A/QWz3ZJ-RoNU/s1600/Romania+2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="316" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-aoeGlDvc6W4/Ty6kX1JXu0I/AAAAAAAAB4A/QWz3ZJ-RoNU/s320/Romania+2.jpg" width="320" /></a>But travellers limiting themselves to chasing vampires will miss so much. The capital, <a href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/destinationRedirector?atlasId=360383">Bucharest</a>, has its critics, but the blend of grotesque communist monuments and purposefully hidden-away cathedrals makes for fascinating exploring. Excellent hiking, biking and skiing are found all over the Transylvanian Alps (aka the Carpathian Mountains), which curl across central Romania. Farmhouse B&Bs allow guests to soak up some village life, particularly in the bucolic paradises of <a href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/destinationRedirector?atlasId=360389">Maramureş</a> and <a href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/destinationRedirector?atlasId=360398">Southern Bucovina</a>, <br /><div class="destinationMapLink clearfix"><a class="pin toggleMap closed" href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/romania#" id="pinToggleMap" style="display: block;"><span class="showMapText"></span></a> </div>where cemeteries and monasteries are painted as boldly as pop-art paintings.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-bKFjn4ljbO8/Ty6kV99reSI/AAAAAAAAB3k/mIvLggbb-9Y/s1600/bucharest+4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-bKFjn4ljbO8/Ty6kV99reSI/AAAAAAAAB3k/mIvLggbb-9Y/s320/bucharest+4.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>Romania’s neighbour <a href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/destinationRedirector?atlasId=360143">Moldova</a> – a trickier place to visit, but equally as fascinating – is no closer to EU consideration than when the Soviet Union collapsed, largely because it lives on as if this had never happened. Russian is spoken commonly here and its renegade province, <a href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/destinationRedirector?atlasId=360148">Transdniestr</a>, still supports a communist government. Adding a few days in this Cold War timewarp on a trip to Romania’s vampire trails and Alp-like ski runs easily makes up one of <a href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/destinationRedirector?atlasId=358537">Europe</a>’s most interesting, and least understood, destinations.
