Day Trips from Bucharest to Sinaia - page 4

Sinaia is often called the Pearl of the Carpathians, and once you see Peles Castle, you’ll understand why. This mountain town was the summer home of the Romanian royals, and it’s packed with Neo-Renaissance architecture and fresh alpine air. Day trips from Bucharest to Sinaia are a staple for a reason: They offer a complete change of scenery in under two hours. A guided tour is especially helpful here for navigating the castle’s timed entry system and skipping the long ticket lines. Plus, your guide handles the driving while you focus on the dramatic mountain peaks rising around you.
