Take a break from the capital and start your morning with a Slanic Prahova visit, known as the biggest salt mine in Europe and also known for its remarkable combination of both man-made and natural beauty. Stands today as one of the most important watering and climatic resorts in Romania. Unique in the country, but also in Europe, in the salt mine, the humidity of the air is circa 50%, and the air composition is richer in sodium ions that have spectacular ameliorative and prophylactic effects as far as breathing deficiencies and diseases are concerned.
Next, visit Peles Castle in Sinaia City, the royal residence and one of the most famous castles in Romania, the summer residence of the first king of Romania, Carol I of Hohenzollern, of German origins. Peles Castle is a masterpiece of German New-Renaissance architecture, built in the late nineteenth century and considered by many to be one of the most stunning castles in Europe. Peles Castle was the first European castle entirely lit by electrical current. Was used as summer residence by the Royal family for more than 50 years, and the original interior decoration is still keeping intact.
