ArabiaWeather.com - Ismail Qasimi - This castle can be viewed from the eye of the beholder of the urban beauty and the one who enjoys culture and history as well as from the eye of the passion for adventures, as it is one of the most frightening and terrifying places, especially after the scenes of the famous movie "Interview with the Vampires" were acted in it , which made "Fort Bran" known as "Dracula's Castle" one of the most famous castles in the world and attracts half a million visitors annually.

The fortress is located on a dramatic peak in a beautiful forest and mountainous area, near the village of Bran, which can also enjoy the atmosphere of the European countryside, which is located 30 kilometers from the city of Brasov, central Romania.

Its construction dates back to the beginning of the thirteenth century, while construction work ended in 1377, and it was used as a military fort for the Kingdom of Hungary, then it became the property of Romania and its ownership transferred between the two kingdoms until the city of Brasov gifted it to Queen Maria in 1918.

The fort was subsequently vandalized, and it was restored to officially open the palace in 2009 and become a historical shrine open to the public, and one of the most important tourist sites in Romania.

Dracula was not present in the magnificent royal palace, so pull yourself together and enjoy everything that is beautiful inside the palace, and see some of the pictures we chose for you on this topic, which show an aspect of royal life in medieval Romania.

How do you access it?

You have to go from the Romanian capital, Bucharest, to the city of Brasov in the north (140 km) by bus or train, for two and a half hours, then transfer by bus to the Bran region, where the fortress is located.
