About Romania

Romania is a southeastern European destination where medieval heritage, dramatic mountain scenery and dynamic modern cities meet. The country offers a broad range of experiences, from fortified towns and castles to the Danube Delta and Black Sea coast, appealing to both leisure and business travellers. Bucharest, the capital, combines a lively cultural scene, large administrative institutions and a growing business district. Other important cities include Cluj-Napoca, a major university and technology centre in Transylvania, Timișoara in the west, Iași in the northeast, and Brașov, a popular base for exploring the surrounding mountains and historic settlements. Beyond its cities, Romania is defined by the Carpathian Mountains, the forested hills of Transylvania and the wetlands of the Danube Delta. Landmarks such as Bran Castle, Peleș Castle, the painted monasteries of Bucovina and the medieval centres of Sighișoara, Sibiu and Brașov reflect centuries of layered history and regional traditions. Romania is a member of the European Union and an increasingly active destination for international events, festivals and business travel. Cultural events such as the George Enescu Festival in Bucharest and major music festivals in Cluj-Napoca attract visitors from across Europe and beyond. The country is served by international airports including Bucharest Henri Coandă, Cluj-Napoca, Timișoara and Iași, alongside a developing highway network and extensive rail connections. This infrastructure supports convenient travel between airports, cities, business districts, hotels, event venues and tourist destinations.
