Southern Carpathians Must-Sees

The Southern Carpathians feature a concentration of historical and natural landmarks, including the 14th-century Bran Castle and the ruins of Poenari, the former residence of Vlad the Impaler. The region preserves ancient Dacian history at the UNESCO-listed Sarmizegetusa Regia and Căpâlna fortress. Natural highlights include the Bucegi plateau's Sphinx and Babele rock formations, the glacial landscapes of the Făgăraș Mountains, and Ialomiței Cave. Engineering sites like the 166-meter-high Vidraru Dam and the Bușteni cable car provide access to high-altitude peaks and deep valleys.
