Product Description
With everything from Bucharest's increasingly sophisticated nightlife to some of Europe's most spectacular wildernesses, Romania lacks neither attractions nor diversity. This new 384-page title has detailed coverage of Europe's new tourism frontier. Romania, which recently became a member of the EU and is now linked to London by low-cost airlines, is one of the continent's most fascinating destinations. This guide incorporates hundreds of spectacular colour photographs, detailed maps and full details and assessments of hundreds of hotels and restaurants right across the country. It is an inspiring background read, serving as an invaluable, on-the-spot companion but can also be kept as a superb, visual souvenir of a visit. Expert local writers bring Romania's history, culture, arts and people to life and it includes all the travel details and contact numbers visitors will need.

Excellent in-depth full-color country guide! October 19, 2007
Seulean Tudor Iustin (Cluj, Romania)
18 out of 20 found this review helpful
This is an excellent country guide that gives you such a wide range of truly in-depth information on the country's culture, arts, folk heritage, history, language, way of life - not just the usual tourist attractions, as most other guides do. This is what actually sets it apart from your "conventional" travel guide. It is a delight to read - I started leafing through it casually when I received it and ended up not being able to put it down for the next few hours, I found it so captivating. And the photographs are just beautiful. Speaking of which: this guide, compared to most other guides I know, is simply teeming with great quality color photos! Here I must congratulate Kathy Kavalec, a keen photographer I know personally, on her exquisitely artistic "Sighisoara passageway." Strongly recommended if you are not simply after a conventional travel guide but rather after a more comprehensive, lavishly illustrated presentation of the country's rich cultural and geographic diversity. Worth every penny.
