DRACULA'S BIRTHPLACE & Other Sights in Sighisoara, Romania // 096 |
|
Count Dracula, Vlad Dracul, Vlad the Impaler, or Vlad Tepes, no matter what you call him, he was born HERE! The massive number of gravestones cloaking the same hill upon which Dracula was born was creepy enough. But something about the dark cobblestone, the ironic stone head of Vlad, and the touting of Dracula's birthplace gave the whole place an extra eerie feel.
While exploring the sights of Sighisoara, it's just impossible to skip Dracula's birthplace. You have the option of even seeing the room in which he was born! They really boast about this, even down to selling baby's tshirts with vampires on them. It made for a strange twinge on your normal tourist attraction. Not all the sights in Sighisoara are related to our buddy Vlad the Impaler, but others are just very old churches, a clocktower that still chimes, and a municipal building. Altogether, Sighisoara, Romania is definitely a city worth visiting, if not for your vampire curiosities, then for the surrounding mountains!
