Tourist attraction of Dracula is being discussed

Most visitors to Romania  tourists know little or inexcusably little about the country. However, practically all travelers recall the history of the horrific Romanian vampire Dracula, which has repeatedly been filmed by Hollywood. Despite the fact that the Minister of Tourism of Romania finds a famous literary and film character, Count Dracula is not the most suitable tourist brand of the country, Romania continue to gain large benefits from the exploitation of awesome personality of the vampire created by the writer of genius Brem Stocker. 

Dracula, created by the imagination of the Irish writer is thought to have likely been a real historical person, a fearless military leader and ruler of the medieval Duchy of Valahia, Vlad III Tsepesh, is the most famous tourist brand of Romania . 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.

According to the Minister of Tourism of Romania, Elena Udrea, Dracula is not a major tourist brand, although, he attracts many tourists. According to Ms. Udre, Romania has much to offer to the travelers in addition to the dusty legend of the old vampire. For example, seven UNESCO World Heritage sites could be very attractive to the tourists.
