Temple of the Bears (at 5 km) - The Sinca Veche cave monastery is an old place of worship located at Sinca Veche, in the bend formed by the Fagaras and Perisani Mountains, 45 kilometers from Brasov and 22 kilometers from Fagaras. The place of worship can be found near the Sinca Veche commune, under the Plesu hill.
Rasnov Fortress (at 20 km) - it was called "Taraneasca Fortress" because the main occupation of the builders was agriculture. The peasant fortresses were part of a defense system of Transylvanian localities exposed to invasions.
Bran Castle (at 25 km) - Initially, Bran Castle was a "passage" fortress with a military purpose, an irregular quadrilateral. Over time, the fortress underwent numerous changes such as: the addition of the south tower (in 1622 according to the plans of Prince Gabriel Bethlen), the construction of a rectangular tower to the east, and between 1883 and 1886 the roof was covered with tiles.
The citadel was transformed into a castle in 1920 when it was owned by Queen Maria, the period in which the most important restoration works were carried out.
