The generally rather negative image of Romania is still the largest travel obstacle. Romania possesses numerous and expanded nature near areas and a very various landscape (of the Pußtaebene up to the alpine mountain area). Between the extensive Hungarian lowlandses and the touristic opened Schwarzmeer coast the country is stamped by the Karpaten, which enclose arc-shaped the "Siebenbürgen".
South the Karpaten is the Romanian heartland and those relatively flat Walachei with the capital Bucharest. Romania offers not only nature purely, but also a multiplicity of sights such as church castles, monasteries and historical cities.
