Although not a geopolitical or economic powerhouse, Romania has a rich history, beautiful nature and talented people, some of whom have made its name famous worldwide.

Gymnast Nadia Comaneci put Romania on the world map of gymnastics many years ago. In fact, many foreigners still think about Nadia Comaneci when they're asked to name something they know about Romania. But the list of things Romania is most famous for also includes the well-known region of Transylvania, the Carpathians, the amazing Danube Delta, famous footballer Gheorghe Hagi, late Communist dictator Nicolae Ceausescu, and more. Check our list:

Transylvania and the story of Dracula

Bran Castle

Transylvania is for sure one of the most famous regions on Romania, especially because of the stories linking it to the famous legend of Count Dracula. However, this region in central Romania is much more, being home to amazing landscapes and beautiful castles and cities.

The most well known cities are Cluj-Napoca, Brasov, Sibiu, Oradea, and Alba Iulia, but there are also smaller medieval towns that are very popular among tourists, such as Sighisoara, Medias or Sebes. As for the castles, the most famous is, of course, the Bran Castle in Brasov, which is also known as Dracula's Castle. In fact, this castle is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Romania. But the Corvin Castle in Hunedoara, one of the largest castles in Europe, is also worth visiting.

On top of that, Transylvania has been called "the land of Dracula" for many years now, mainly due to its connection with Bram Stoker's horror novel Dracula, for which the writer used Transylvania as a setting.

The Carpathian Mountains

The Carpathians are the second-largest mountain range in Europe, providing the habitat for the largest European populations of brown bears or wolves, with the highest concentration in Romania. One of the wildest areas in Romania, the Carpathian Mountains are also home to some of the last remaining virgin forests in Europe.

The Carpathians also make Romania known worldwide, offering some of the best views in the world. Moreover, some drivers know the Carpathians because of the high altitude roads Transfagarasan and Transalpina, nature enthusiasts know it because of the high variety of plants and animals living here, while those who prefer outdoor activities know it for the hiking experiences it offers or the many ski resorts it hosts.

The bears

Romania's Carpathians are home to many species of animals, but the brown bears have always caught the people's attention, especially because of the large population roaming the local forests. It is believed that there are over 200,000 brown bears in the world, and estimates say that over 6,000 of them are living in Romania's forests in the Carpathian Mountains: the largest population of bears in the European Union.

Tourists hiking in the Carpathian Mountains can spot a bear roaming freely, which, although a beautiful experience, it can be very dangerous, but these animals also began searching for food outside the forests, being spotted in cities located near the mountains. Nevertheless, the bears are beautiful wild animals, very important for the ecosystem.

The Danube Delta

One of the largest and best preserved of Europe's deltas, the Danube Delta in Romania is also a place known worldwide. Located in Eastern Romania, this biodiversity hotspot is perfect for nature enthusiasts, hosting over 300 species of birds and 45 freshwater fish species, as well as other animals such as the beautiful wild horses.

The Danube Delta, a UNESCO-protected site, is formed by the waters of the Danube River flowing into the Black Sea. It is a great place for relaxation, giving visitors a chance to reconnect with nature.

The Communist past

Nicolae Ceausescu

What many people think of when they think about Romania is the country's Communist past. And when they say Communism, most think of the last dictator the country had - Nicolae Ceausescu.

Communism existed officially in Romania between 1947 and 1989. It ended in December 1989, with the fall of Communist leader Nicolae Ceausescu. The main political event that announced the imminent fall of communism in Romania was the anti-communist riot in Brasov, which took place in November 1987. Then, in mid-December 1989, a protest erupted in Timisoara, one of the biggest cities in Western Romania, spreading to other cities and Bucharest. Ceausescu fled Bucharest by helicopter but was captured in Targoviste, the city where he and his wife Elena were quickly tried and sentenced to death. They were both executed on the Christmas Day of 1989.

The mammoth Palace of the Parliament

Palace of Parliament

One of the most famous constructions left behind by late Communist leader Ceausescu is the Palace of the Parliament in downtown Bucharest, also known as People's Palace. One can simply not miss this building, mainly because of its size: it is the world's largest administrative building (for civilian use) and the second-largest building in the world after the Pentagon in the US.

A landmark of the Romanian capital, this mammoth building has become very popular among tourists, being one of the things most foreign tourists plan to visit when they decide it's time to see Romania as well.

The extraordinary athletes

Three of the extraordinary local athletes who took Romania's name abroad, making the country famous worldwide, are retired gymnast Nadia Comaneci, former tennis player Ilie Nastase and former professional footballer Gheorghe Hagi.

Nadia Comaneci is not only one of the most famous Romanian athletes but also one of the world's best-known gymnasts. A five-time Olympic gold medalist, she remained in the history of world sports as the first gymnast to be awarded a perfect score of 10 at the Olympic Games. The incredible success was registered at the 1976 Summer Olympics in Montreal.

A talented tennis player, Ilie Nastase was the first number one in the ATP ranking of the best men's tennis players in the world. He won over 100 ATP singles and doubles tournaments in his career, including a singles title at Roland Garros (1973) and one at the U.S. Open (1972). He and his friend Ion Tiriac took Romania to three Davis Cup finals, in 1969,1971 and 1972.

Gheorghe Hagi is the name most people think of when they think about football. Now the owner of local football club Viitorul Constanta, Hagi has been one of the best attacking midfielders in Europe during the 1980s and 1990s. He is also seen as one of the greatest Romanian footballers of all time. This why Romanian football fans still call him The King ( Regele in Romanian).

Simona Halep is the new star of Romanian sports. The Constanta-born tennis player is currently number one in the WTA ranking of the best women's tennis players in the world. She also won her first Grand Slam title at Roland Garros this year.

Constantin Brancusi

Constantin Brancusi

Through his original work, Constantin Brancusi was one of the most influential sculptors of the 20th century, remaining one of Romania's most famous international artists.

Born in 1876 in the village of Hobita, in Southern Romania, Brancusi is considered a pioneer of modernism. He made his career in Paris, where he also died, but his works became famous worldwide. Some of his sculptures still sell for record sums at international auctions. For example, in the first half of last year, La muse endormie, a 1913 bronze cast work of sculptor Constantin Brancusi, sold for over USD 57 million at a Christie's auction in New York, boosting the auction house's sales for that period. Meanwhile, many international exhibitions still give visitors the chance to see Brancusi sculptures.

George Enescu

George Enescu Festival

Seen by many as Romania's most important musician, George Enescu is an emblematic figure for the Romanian musical culture and one of the most important names in the international gallery of the great composers and interpreters of the 20th century. He was equally remarkable as a violinist, composer, conductor, pianist and violin teacher, his name being well known by classical music fans around the world.

One of the biggest cultural events in the country, which is dedicated to classical music, is named after him. The George Enescu International Festival brings world-class music figures to Bucharest once every two years, attracting many international fans. The next edition is scheduled for 2019.

Local car brand Dacia

Dacia

The Dacia car brand is now one of the most popular brands in Europe and beyond. The company Automobile Dacia was founded in 1966, when the country was under the Communist regime, and has been a subsidiary of the French car manufacturer Renault since 1999.

In August this year, the Dacia brand and the local plant in Mioveni celebrated their half-century anniversary. The Pitesti Vehicle Plant was inaugurated on August 20, 1968, and the first car to exit the plant was called Dacia 1100 and was manufactured under a Renault R8 license. One year later, the factory started producing the Dacia 1300, which was its flagship model for about three decades.

Throughout the last five decades, over 6 million cars were manufactured at the plant in Mioveni. Now, Dacia is the biggest company in Romania, and the Dacia cars are being sold in 44 countries on 4 continents.

Our school is located in the central part of Portugal, more or less 100 km away from big cities like Oporto and Coimbra. It is a public school in a rural area which means that most students' families live from agriculture. Others work abroad mainly in Switzerland. That’s why a significant percentage of our students live with a relative. The population of our school mainly comes from the town and the surrounding villages. Currently 206 teachers teach at Agrupamento de Escolas de Castro Daire and 1588 pupils attend it from Kindergarden up to secondary education, thus our students ages vary from 3 to 19. In terms of vocational courses, the offers kind of change every year according to the needs of the work market. Since Portugal receives a lot of tourists from abroad and requires skilled workers in that area , our school tends to adapt to that and almost every new school year the pupils who just want to complete compulsory education can choose professional courses related to tourism, catering, massage or ICT. As far as regular education is concerned, at the beginning of the 10th form pupils are required to choose what they would like to study during secondary education which lasts three years. The most chosen courses at that level have to do with science and technology.

Birthplace of the Roman emperor Constantine the Great, the city of Niš still embodies the combination of exotic East and elegant West.

Today a modern tourist center with museums and historical sites that are on european must see maps, Serbian city of Niš has been a gate connecting the East and the West ever since it was established. Even nowadays, driving down the roads through Niš is the shortest way to reach the Middle East from Europe, or cities like Sofia and Istanbul from Vienna, Budapest or Prague.

This route has been called “Carigradski drum” (The Road to the Emperor’s city ie. Constantinople/Istanbul) since the Middle Ages. In its rich history, Niš was even the birthplace of a great emperor.

During the day you can visit its numerous museums and sites of great historical importance, like the Mediana archaeological site (remains of a luxurious Roman settlement), the Niš fortress (best preserved Ottoman fort in this part of the Balkans) or “Ćele kula” (“The Skull tower“, a unique structure built by the order of the Ottoman Hursid pasha using the skulls of Serbian soldiers killed in the Battle of Čegar during the First Serbian uprising), and then, by night, listen to some music at Nišville jazz festival or watch a movie at “Filmski sureti” (Cinematic meetings) film festival.

It was the Celts that have named this old city, and they did it after the river Nišava that still runs through it. In their language, its name is Navissos – the Fairy’s river.

According to one of the legends about the foundation of Niš, it was built “in time before history” by the rocks brought from a nearby Humska čuka (the Hilltop of Hum). But the most glorious in city’s history was the Roman period.

During that time, Niš was a major cultural, economic and military center, and the birthplace of emperor Constantine the Great, who has proclaimed religious tolerance throughout Roman empire and was first ruler of Rome to convert to Christianity.

Anyone interested in history and ancient Rome should visit the remains of emperor Constantine’s palace in “Mediana” and revive the time of its fame.

Modern day Niš is an important center in Serbia. With the population of more than 250.000 people, it is the third largest city in the country.

Beside numerous historical sites, you shouldn’t miss walking down the city’s main street nor tasting the Serbian cuisine and having lunch in one of its well-known “kafanas” (Serbian traditional taverns).

Get ready for a wide variety of flavors, great barbecue and abundant food portions with a lot of meat and spices but also don’t miss the local “burek” (a kind of cheese pie), a specialty that has its own festival – “Days of burek” – held every September in Niš.

Niška banja (the Spa of Niš) is located just 10 km far from the city, and Sićevačka klisura (the Sićevo gorge) is also near.

Serbia is a country full of hidden natural treasures. From the vast plains in the north to the high mountains in the south, Serbia will constantly surprise you with the diversity of its landscapes and the life that inhabits it. Many plant and animal species which are virtually extinct elsewhere in Europe have found sanctuary here.

Culture has always been a crucial part of the Serbian identity, so much that in certain difficult historical periods, it only existed and survived through culture. Today the culture of Serbia is being more developed under the influence of the cultural legacy of the West, while, at the same time, striving to maintain the cultural uniqueness of this region.

Being on the crossroads of Balkan routes, Serbian culture has for centuries preserved the identity and authenticity of Serbia and its people.

Positioned on the crossroads of the main Balkan routes, Serbia has inherited a considerable cultural wealth. Among the remains of the tens of centuries old civilizations, there are traces of people who lived in this region 40,000 years ago, impressive Roman heritage, as well as medieval material and immaterial cultural wealth. All of the people who inhabited or still inhabit Serbian soil have included something of their own into Serbian cultural heritage, thus making it more valuable and interesting.

During the territory’s prehistoric period some of the most complex cultures were developed such as the culture of Lepenski Vir, then Starčevo and Vinča culture.
The first cultural monument written in Cyrillic script is the 12th century “Miroslavljevo Jevanđelje“ (Miroslav Gospel), written using gold on a white parchment, which UNESCO included in the most significant works of the world documentation heritage.
The first specialized school for women in Europe was established in the 14th century in Serbia, while in that same century, Serbia had a female writer, nun Jefimija, whose works are considered the jewels of medieval literature.
Literature has always had an especially significant place in Serbian culture. Inside the books of Serbian writers, in the last few centuries, tales have been preserved about the past living conditions in Serbia, the suffering of the people, mentality of people from different parts of the world… The novel “The Bridge on the Drina” by Serbian writer Ivo Andrić even made a mark on the world literature by winning him the Nobel Prize in 1961.
An important part of the material culture of Serbia, besides the extremely valuable fresco painting that ornaments the walls of the Serbian monasteries, are works of the famous painters like Sava Šumanović, Paja Jovanović, and Uroš Predić.

Music is an essential segment of the Serbian cultural wealth, and is reflected mostly in the songs and dances from this region. Serbian folk dance is kolo, performed differently from region to region, while the famous folk instruments are before mentioned “gusle” and “frula” (an instrument resembling a small recorder or a flute), and a small tamboura in Vojvodina. A trumpet is also very popular in Serbia.

The backbone of the Serbian culture consists of ethnic heritage and rich and unique tradition of the country that is best observed in its customs and the region-specific values. One of such values is the Orthodox custom of celebrating the family saint, which will soon be included in the representative list of the immaterial cultural heritage of the mankind, compiled by the organization UNESCO.

Displayed in numbers, the list of immobile cultural property consists of 2109 cultural monuments, 72 regional cultural and historical sites, 167 archaeological sites and 71 sites of significance. There are about 250 cultural centers, 160 libraries and 100 museums.
