CASTELUL DE LUT FULL

When planning your trip along the Transfagarasan highway give yourself plenty of time for the crossing. It is 90 km long and it runs through the Fagaras mountains, a part of the Transsylvanian Alps. The Transfagarasan mountain road is one of the most spectacular roads in the world. So between the shows…we decided to visit one more place that should be on everyone’s bucket list: The place where this is built is near Fagaras Mountains, which can be seen in the distance. Spending some nights there is already on my bucket list!:D It will even have a restaurant (serving organic local food) which will open in several months and by the end of the year this lodge will be able to welcome its first guests. They will also have a beach-like place near the river flowing nearby where you can lay in the sun.

The construction is built using only 100% organic products such as clay, wood, sand, stone and hay….

The lodge is still in construction but it will have 10 rooms, each of them with separate entrance, for privacy. The first thing we saw when we entered the room was the view over Piaa Sfatului. We stayed in Hotel Am Ring 2 nights in august 2022 and it was a pleasant experience. 14 Best Value of 2,395 places to stay in Porumbacu de Sus. This lodge in Romania will surely satisfy your fantasy needs 🙂 18.1 miles from Castelul De Lut Valea Zanelor. If you wanna feel the beloved fairy tale experience in real life…look no further! We grew up with it.ĭo you remember the Seven Dwarfs’s house?Well…it looks like it has been recreated in Romania!:D We all enjoyed the fairy tale “ Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs“. The cool thing about FFW was that every show had a different location.One of these locations was Castelul de Lut din Valea Zanelor (which means “ The Clay Castle from the Valley of the Fairies” in english) It is a magical place where you can let your imagination run wild and become children once again.As you already know…last week I was in Romania for #FeericFashionWeek.(I’ll write a post about it very soon). This location is a true enchanted oasis, surrounded by fascinating stories and legends. The best way to get there is via Porumbacu de Sus and then follow the directions of the wooden signs scattered throughout the route. The property is located just off the mythical Transfagarasan Road, one of the most beautiful high altitude roads in the world for its breathtaking views. The Castle is open to visitors at a cost of around $3 per person.Ĭastelul de Lut can only be reached by car, as it is located at the end of a dirt road far removed from inhabited centers. However, the structure's unusual irregular shape still attract thousands of tourists from all over the world who come to see this storybook setting of thatched roofs and clay walls. The initial idea was to create an eco-friendly hotel, a fairytale-looking castle with a restaurant that only served local products, but the project is still ongoing. The Castle of the Fairies, built exclusively with natural and ecological materials such as clay, sand, straw and river stone, was built in 2014 by a Romanian couple who decided to leave the chaos of the city to live in a place surrounded by wild and uncontaminated nature.
