Itinerary
1
Mogosoaia Palace
rst, we arrive at Mogoșoaia, a stunning 300-year-old estate that looks like it was lifted straight out of a fairytale. Built in a unique architectural style that mixes Venetian romance with Ottoman opulence, this palace is a photographer's dream. Walk through the lush lakeside gardens, explore the grand courtyards, and discover the scandalous, glamorous lives of Romania's elite noble families.
2
Snagov Monastery
Next, we head deep into the ancient forests to Snagov Lake. Sheltered on a serene island reached by a footbridge sits a medieval monastery with a dark reputation. This isolated church is the legendary final resting place of Vlad the Impaler (the real-life Count Dracula). Together, we’ll stand before his mysterious tomb, look at the ancient frescoes, and separate the Hollywood myths from the thrilling historical truth.
