A Monastery With a Small Zoo, and a Gondola That Stops in Winter
A day out of Brașov that puts less obvious places alongside the famous one. Peleș is on it, but so are stops most itineraries never mention, and that mix is the reason to take this one rather than another.
There are two versions, chosen at booking. One goes to the Peleș complex and the Sinaia monastery. The other goes to Cantacuzino Castle, which played Nevermore Academy in Wednesday, and includes the ride up for the mountain views.
