2. Bran/Dracula Castle(Bran, Romania)

The first document that mentions Bran Castle is from 1377. During the centuries it was a fortress and a royal residence. The name: Dracula comes from Vlad the Impale's father whose nickname was: the Dracul.
It is a nice and unique place to visit. It isn't so luxurious as Peles Castle but you came to visit something from 1377, so it represents that period.
