My Romanian road trip continues on the Transfagarasan highway through the beautiful Carpathian mountains. The novel "Dracula" by Bram Stoker, published in 1897, is very loosely based on Romanian history and in particular Vlad III, also known as Vlad Dracula or Vlad the Impaler, who lived from around 1428 to 1477. During my last visit to Romania in 2018 I visited Bran Castle, which is often referred to as the Dracula castle. But it actually has no known connection with Vlad III. There's another castle in Romania, Poenari, that does have a strong connection with Vlad III, because he restored the castle and lived in it for many years. Unfortunately the castle is currently closed, so I wasn't planning on going there. But as luck would have it I ended up coming across it quite unexpectedly.
