see the famous documentaries of Charlie Ottley (who, after discovering the beauty of Romania, moved here for about 10 years now), "Flavors of Romania" and "Wild Carpathia".
Late to the party, but I'll give it a shot. The white stork nests are massive indeed. Big birds need loads of space to raise the chick(s). And they're protected to my knowledge; it's why the power companies have to take measures to protect the birds from being electrocuted (and also the overhead lines from accidental short-circuits), and mount their (existing) nests on those metal structures. Oh, and normally it has to be on the same pole (location) as the birds are quite sensitive to that stuff. Same goes for buildings, as some storks build their nests on top of chimneys, and people have to find solution to both clear the chimney and protect the bird as well.
@@JordanandEmily Do you remember how much? There seems to be a fee for not returning the car at the same location. (100€). Rewatch your video again. Such a nice video edit.
Hi. The fact is the Medieval castles had both the interior and sometimes the exterior walls plastered and painted. So what you saw was the original look. Many times the walls were covered in tapestries or paintings. They didn't left the stones showing, for them it was cold and ugly, especially for a nobles' residence like this one. Many castles nowadays look like they weren't finished because time is not kind to any building, and many times the authorities didn't tried to bring back the old look.
We had no idea! we assumed the exposed brick was the normal look for castle back in the day😅 Hollywood lied to us! Thanks for clearing up that fact for us though! 😀
guys actualy the inscription "you may have water..." was right on the wall near the well, from where you stood with the camera filming the scene, it was right behind you and right in front of Emily's eyes haha :D it's written in arabic
Most movies are Western and Northern European stories where the castles look like you expected the Corvin castle to look like. In "the letter for the king", from Netflix, the scene where the protagonists arrive at a monastery in the mountains, is filmed in Eastern Europe and reproduces the interior of the castle correctly, as is the one of the Corvins that you visited
We’re Americans that drove all over Australia and had the same problem with turning on the wipers 😂 We love the freedom of road trips though (and it’s sometimes cheaper for our family of five)!!! We also drove all over Turkey, Bulgaria, Italy, Spain, France, and Morocco
Sorry you had to put up with our road infrastructure, it's very underdeveloped due to corruption. They've been promising more highways for 30 years haha😂
One of the Romanian's characteristic is that we love to complain and many times we see only the bad things. I drove on roads from Australia to Canada, from China to Argentina and the roads in Romania are at least average if not better than many, many others! And corruption? For years this was and it still is a political game! It is a beautiful country, safe and nice and easy to visit!❤
