Stunning Peles Castle in Sinaia Romania

After more than 2 hours’ drive from the capital city Bucharest, we arrived in a picturesque Carpathian Mountains to visit Peles Castle. This magnificent Castle which was once the summer residence of the Romanian Kings is now one of the most important museums in the country. It is considered as one of the most stunning castles in Europe.

Its foundation was laid on 22 August 1873, as commissioned by King Carol 1 of Romania. According to our tour guide, Peles was the first European Castle entirely lit by electrical current and having central heating, as well as a vacuuming system that is still working even to this day.

When visiting to this place, like the King, you too will surely fall in love with the magnificent mountain scenery. For more details, please click the link about Peles Castle. Or, check my book entitled INSPIRED TO TRAVEL; TRAVEL TO INSPIRE.
