Bran Castle Courtyard - Dracula Castle

Evocative view of Bran Castle inner courtyard, famous worldwide as Dracula Castle. The white plastered walls, dark wood half-timbered balconies, and red tile roofs create a fascinating and mysterious architecture. Built in the 14th century as a border fortress between Transylvania and Wallachia, the castle dominates a rocky promontory and is today one of Romania most visited monuments. The covered passages and intertwining stairs in the courtyard add a sense of mystery to this legendary place.
