Weather

Two separate wet seasons shape the year here, roughly around May and December, with drier, more reliable stretches in between rather than one long wet or dry season. In September, expect highs around 26°C with rain on roughly 6 days of the month.

Things to Do

Transylvania's medieval castles, including Bran, linked to Dracula, and the Carpathian mountains' hiking trails are the highlights.

Local Cuisine

Try sarmale (stuffed cabbage rolls) and mămăligă, Romanian classics.
