Pit Stop in Sinaia, Romania (August 21, 2013)

---

On our way out of Bucarest, with seriously achy muscles from the day trip to Brasov, we stopped in Sinaia to get a look at what I consider one of the sickest castles I have seen while browsing them online. Not because it is one of the biggest, but it was just so dang pretty. It sits back 100 meters or so from this old cobblestone path (maybe the original path?) and blows your mind away.

Unfortunately, we did not have time to go inside as Sinaia was literally a 2 hr pit ststop/detour and we took the looooong way up (45 minutes at least, and uphill). I felt pretty stupid once we found the 15-20 minute cobblestone path back to the train station but hey, we got good exercise.

The town of Sinaia was very neat, reminded me a bit of Brasov, just more vertical. Here are a couple photos, you may have seen the others on facebook.

Adios!
