Nestled amidst the mountains and accessible via a picturesque forest path lies a castle with a grandeur that is difficult to describe in words. Commissioned by King Carol I during Romania’s independence in 1877, the castle boasts a staggering one-hundred and sixty rooms, including theaters, concert halls, libraries, offices, shisha lounges, and more. But what sets it apart is the unique and exquisite décor of each room, hallway, and foyer, drawing inspiration from various styles and themes such as Turkish, Venetian, Florentine, French, and Moorish, to name a few.
