Many travelers visit the country, wishing to tickle the nerves and discover the famous places associated with the horrific legend of the cruel vampire. Most tourists want to see with their own eyes the castle where Vlad Tsepesh who now inextricably associated with a mystic character vampire Dracula, with a bloodthirsty sophistication used numerous deadly tortures to his sworn enemies and vassals: flayed, boiled, burned and cut off heads and impaled them. 

Today the most visited tourist attractions of Romania, associated with the name of a famous vampire, are the Bran Castle, a medieval town Sigishoara, the fortress Poenari, village Aref, the city of Brasov and the palace in Bucharest.
