Romania – my country

Romania’s territory features splendid mountains, beautiful rolling hills, fertile plains and numerous rivers and lakes. The Carpathian Mountains traverse the center of the country, bordered on both sides by hills and then by the great plains of the outer rim. Forests cover over one quarter of the country and the fauna is one of the richest in Europe, including bears, deer, lynx, black goats and wolves. The legendary Danube River ends its journey through eight European countries at the Black Sea by forming one of the biggest and most interesting wetlands in the world, the Danube Delta.

Romania has a temperate climate, with four distinct seasons.

The legend of Dracula 

The castle at Bran, near Brasov in southern Transylvania, has been marketed as Dracula's Castle. Although Stoker never saw Bran up close, it was a painting of the castle which inspired the Dracula's Castle which appears in the book, described as being 'on the very edge of a terrific precipice... with occasionally a deep rift where there is a chasm with silver threads where the river’s wind goes in deep gorges through the forests.

Romanian traditions

Eminescu - who were also directors of the institution.), come mainly from monastery libraries and individuals, who entered our heritage according to the law, through donations or purchases.�The library's holdings were reorganized under the leadership of Saxon professor Karl Kurt Klein, director of the institution during the interwar period.

It is known about the arrangement of the garden on Copou Hill that it was started in 1963, and then continued constantly for better development.

The National Theater

On December 1, 1896, the National Theater building was inaugurated by mayor Nicolae Gane. The plans of the building belong to the famous Viennese architects Fellner and Helmer, who designed similar constructions in Vienna, Prague, Odessa, Zürich.

The "Vasile Alecsandri" National Theater in Iasi is the oldest National Theater in Romania. The first show in Romanian was performed in December 1816. In February 1888, the building was destroyed by fire. It was only in 1896 that a new building for the theater was built, on the site of the old town hall. The theater building is the oldest of its kind in the country and is still considered the most beautiful today. The inauguration of the theater also brought with it a premiere: the electrical plant next door marks the start of public lighting in Iasi.
