Optional Sights to Visit on This Trip

Rock-Hewn Churches of Ivanovo
These extraordinary churches, chapels, and monastic cells were carved into the rock by monks from the 13th to 17th centuries. At its peak, the complex featured around 40 churches and hundreds of dwellings. Today, the surviving sanctuaries — adorned with expressive medieval frescoes — are protected as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Basarbovo Monastery
Set high above the Rusenski Lom River near Ruse, this Orthodox cave monastery honors Saint Dimitar Basarbovski, a humble shepherd who chose a solitary, ascetic life in the caves. The monastery remains active and is a peaceful site for reflection and exploration.

Comana Monastery
Built by Vlad Țepeș (the real-life Dracula) in 1461, Comana was designed as a monastery-fortress on an island in the middle of a swamp. Its defensive design and location made it both a spiritual center and a strategic stronghold. In the 1970s, archaeologists unearthed a headless body on the site, sparking theories that Vlad the Impaler may be buried here.

Peleș Castle
Nestled in the forested hills of Sinaia, Peleș Castle is one of Europe’s finest royal residences. Commissioned by King Carol I, this neo-Renaissance masterpiece dazzles with its richly decorated rooms, advanced 19th-century technology, and luxurious interiors. It was the first fully electrified castle in the world and continues to impress visitors with its opulence.

Bran Castle
Perched atop a rocky cliff, Bran Castle is known worldwide as “Dracula’s Castle.” While the connection to Bram Stoker’s character is mostly fictional, the site’s dramatic setting and gothic towers captivate every visitor. The castle served as a royal residence and now operates as a museum filled with artifacts and furniture collected by Queen Marie of Romania.
