Peleș Castle

The most beautiful castle I’ve ever visited. The architecture is stunning, both inside and out, with incredible attention to detail -it feels like stepping into a fairy tale. Іt is a must-visit destination for anyone traveling to Romania. However, the queues are some of the longest I’ve ever seen, so be prepared to bring plenty of patience🤷‍♀️

We went to visit this Castle on a Monday and unfortunately this beautiful monument is closed every Monday and Tuesday, which we think is quite sad. So due to this we couldn't visit the place, but even the area outside is a beautiful area to take beautiful pictures and to have a coffee enjoying the views. The castle was under renovations, so not the most lucky day for us.

The detail in this castle is amazing. I could've spent hours & hours here. Unfortunately, it was PACKED!! Our guide got us in the very front of the line, so any waiting we did was strictly waiting for the place to open. Buses & buses of tourists waited behind us for a long time. Don't expect to get photos without others in them unless you're first in line & even then you may not.

Stunning! I went there in mid-December. Unfortunately when I visited part of the castle was under repair. I was only able to visit 1 of the floors. Despite this, the interior that I did see was amazing! The only downside was the crowded line, but of course that cannot be avoided.

The interior is wonderfully thought out and decorated. There are a lot of details to this castle that definitely should not be missed. We went in January and the entire place was covered with a blanket of snow. What a picture of site from the exterior. I wish I had more time to explore here but we were on a tour so time was naturally limited but 110% recommended.

Really nice castle. Everything is super detailed and well made. It carries a lot of history for Romania. I highly recommend as an attraction. You better get the “tour” of all three floors and then skip the tour and walk by yourself while avoiding other groups. It’s not worth it being cramped with others in small spaces. First floor is by far the most impressive but still make the effort of going upstairs too. You won’t regret it.

Stunning castle with an even more magnificent interiors which will probably be seen as gaudy in today’s world. Being located in the Carpathian Mountains gives it a more enchanting feel. The scaffolding definitely ruined the exterior but we were informed that extensive plumbing works were ongoing so it’s understandable. Possibly the most annoying thing are the queues despite visiting on a weekday morning. Regardless, it’s definitely worth a visit.

The castle is impressive and I recommend seeing more than the ground floor. Even though not every room had a working audio guide, take the headsets with you. The experience is way better with a guided voice.
