The country of Romania is famous not only for vampires and an entertaining story of the fall of the communist regime. Having access to the sea, it claims the right to become one of the best Black Sea resort powers in the future and has enormous potential for this. But even now, despite some imperfect infrastructure, summer vacations in Romania are already preferred by travelers who are not accustomed to overpaying only for the popularity of tourist brands.
On the merits of Romanian resorts
To travel to Romania, Russian tourists will have to apply for a visa. The rest of the preparation for the trip will be more enjoyable and exciting:
- Prices for hotels in Romania are quite nice and even a good room in a solid "four" will not cause significant damage to the family budget. For budget-conscious tourists, Romanians have prepared family guesthouses, rooms in which will allow you to fully immerse yourself in local traditions and save money.
- Direct flights of the Russian airline will transfer tourists from Moscow to Bucharest in less than 3 hours.
- Despite the gypsy urban legends, the safety of tourists in Romania is at the proper level. Precautions should be taken only in too crowded places, because pickpockets in the crowd have not yet been canceled.
- Romanian cuisine is quite satisfying and adapted to the average taste of a Russian guest. The menus of numerous restaurants include solid meat dishes, vegetables, and pretty desserts.
About beaches
Going on a summer vacation to Romania, a tourist, first of all, hopes for a good vacation by the sea. His hopes here will come true with interest, because local beaches are famous for their cleanliness and well-groomed. Throughout the entire Romanian Riviera, they are covered with fine golden sand, and the entrance to the water is smooth, without breaks and other unpleasant surprises. This makes the Black Sea beaches ideal for families with children.
Sports entertainment is organized for the active part of the tourists at the resorts of the Romanian Riviera. The resorts have golf courses, tennis courts and bowling halls. On the beaches there is an opportunity to rent water skis and motorcycles, and horse fans can arrange horseback riding in the fresh air in the picturesque surroundings.
The beach season in Romania begins at the end of May, when the sea warms up to + 20 ° С, and the air - up to + 26 ° С and above. Even at the height of July and August, it is not too hot on the coast, thanks to the sea breezes, and it is comfortable to sunbathe and swim here until the end of October.
Summer vacation with children in Romania
Kids on the Romanian beaches will love it, because the water here warms up well, and the flat and shallow bottom near the coast allows you to splash in the sea comfortably and safely. The coastline faces east and the beaches are filled with light from early morning, when the sun is still the most gentle and safe. The absence of strong sea waves and noticeable ebb and flow is another plus in favor of a family summer vacation in Romania.
About treatment
Romania is very popular among adherents of natural healing factors. About 160 health resorts have been built in the country, and several times more mineral springs are known. The most famous sanatoriums and boarding houses operate in the towns of Baile Olanesti in the Southern Carpathians, Slanic Moldova in the eastern part of the country and Sovata in the heart of Transylvania.
In addition to thermal and mineral waters, the basis of local health programs at the balneological resorts is sapropel mud from the bottom of lakes Ajigiol and Nuntash and unique methods of local doctors and cosmetologists. Normalizing metabolism, getting rid of gynecological or dermatological pathologies and taking a course of rejuvenation in the sanatoriums of Romanian resorts is a good plan for a long-awaited vacation. You can combine business with pleasure on the beaches of the lake shores. Local sand not only allows you to sunbathe comfortably, but also has a special mineral composition that is beneficial for joints and general well-being.
Note to the traveler
- ATMs and accepting credit cards in restaurants and hotels in the provinces are no longer the exception to the rule. But in the most remote villages it is still better to have cash with you.
- Comfortable buses run regularly from Bucharest airport to the city, tickets for which will cost an order of magnitude cheaper than a taxi ride.
About sights
There are interesting places and sights in every Romanian resort or city where tourists stay. When planning an educational route, decide what to visit in the city on your own, and which objects are more interesting and profitable to see as part of an organized excursion.
Romania is beautiful at any time of the year, but in summer the Carpathian mountains look much more picturesque and medieval castles, as if descended from the pages of vampire sagas, look much more mysterious.
In Transylvania, it is customary to enjoy walks through the ruins of ancient fortresses and admire the unique churches protected in the UNESCO World Heritage List.
The region of Maramures is famous for temples built of wood several centuries ago, and apple liqueur, which organizers of gastronomic tours are in a hurry to offer for tasting.
The Orthodox pilgrimage is made by followers of the Christian religion to the Bukovina region. This area is famous for its ancient monasteries, the frescoes in which have been carefully preserved for many centuries.
