The castle was built in honor of Iulia Hasdeu who was the first Romanian to study at the Sorbonne and who died at only 18 years of tuberculosis. Iulia's father was Bogdan Petriceicu Hasdeu, one of the greatest personalities of Romanian culture of all times. The castle can be visited with a guide and has a translation machine. Also after the tour of the castle you can rest in its generous garden.

This easy to miss place right next to the train station is like a little magic land. It has one very big maquette of Sinaia with running trains and ski lifts and lots of things also. It has a little cafe, few souvenirs and a play space for kids. It's a wonderful cheap stop by

This old Casino looks astounding. Beautiful architecture ans set in a very nice little park next to an old and luxurious hotel. It has great history and it's worth a visit with a guided tour. The architecture inside is wonderful and you kinda go back to the days when they played poker or roulette here. At the end of the tour you have some little and wonderful art galleries and also a good small cafe. This building is also used for important conferences.

This castle is a little jewel. It is very beautiful. You can take the tour from hour to hour or just visit the gardens and the outside. On the inside, sadly most of it was changed by the communists in a bad way and they also stoled the furniture and pieces of artwork..a terrible shame. Upstairs is a beautiful art gallery with some very fine and original works ( about cartoons, fairytales and animation). I hope it will be restored completely!
