The beautiful country of Romania can be described with the following three words: beauty, charm and diversity. It is a country with dramatic history, rich culture and magnificent monuments.Romania is the country where the North requirements, the South cultural imprint and the East political culture influence. Numerous UNESCO World Heritage Sites can be found in the heart of the country.
Romania is the only country in the world where you will find pole horses and snow mast sentinels. Respective of the climate, the winter and summer climates are distinct regions. During the winter, the climate is much colder and the soil is low. The summer is warmer and the soil is rich, but the temperature vary a lot.
Romania culture displays many paradoxes and its characteristics. There are many outstanding examples of architecture and paintings in the country. Marialand, the official town center in the North of the country, has sleds and marble monuments, decorated with beautiful stones. Many great Renaissance artists such as imagining by Mother Teresa and Vincent van Gogh felt inspired right in this place.
In another region, Cihel means heaven in Albanian. This is where the ancestors of the current population live. By the way, this place is also known as The Valley of the Temples. I am not sure whether the name is familiar to you but it has a very strong association with the history of the country.
North of Belgrade is Korca – unusual name, but it has nothing to do with the Hills of Korca. Instead, this town is the stomping ground of the rulers of Romania. Only here you can find the best preserved city of the ancient times. It became the capital of the country in 1459. In December of 1944, the city was renamed “Perturbedolt.” The Americans did not like this choice and wanted to change it. They wanted to stick with “Casa Poporul” or “Bu Peace.”
And, after World War II, come what may, the Cihel mountain is still the king of the villages. There are villages on the top of the mountain where the residents live in a strange formations. These villages are literally at the top of the earth. literally. The only way to reach the village is by elevator. To climb the Cihel mountain is quite risky. The trails are poorly maintained and scaffolding is found in some places. In fact, taking the path on the top of the mountain is more dangerous than going down.
In addition, the construction of the villa itself was a mistake. The design of the villa is similar to the typical Italian villa, but the cost of $300,000 has become expensive since they added natural gas generac generators. By that time, there were no less than $1,500 for each square foot. It is also strange that there is no elevator. The architect did not consider that an elevator would be a necessity. After all, how many people will need to use an elevator?
There are a lot of interesting things in Romania. Too much, and I can’t cover everything in a single article.
