Biserica reformată din DAIA (Székelydálya) Reformed Church (Harghita County, Transylvania, Romania)
Enable Englis subtitle ! - Activați subtitrarea în românește !
Biserica din Daia, un sat din sud-estul Transilvaniei, la sud de Odorheiu Secuiesc (județul Harghita) a fost edificată și pictată interior în mai multe etape pe parcursul secolelor XII-XIX. Răspândirea masivă în Transilvania a reformei protestante la începutul secolului al XVI-lea face ca biserica și întreaga zonă să treacă la cultul reformat și așa au rămas. Deși uzanțele protestante din acele vremuri făceau să fie acoperite sau distruse picturile murale, biserica din Daia se remarcă prin conservarea acestora, nefiind nici măcar acoperite. Pe ziduri se pot recunoaște urmele unor picturi în frescă: Sfântu gheorghe, legendele Sfântului rege Ladislau și corabia condusă de Papă și Împăratul Romano-German. În schimb, tavanul sanctuarului păstrează foarte bine o uimitoare și neobișnuită (pentru biserici) pictură în stil Renaissance, cu blazoane și datând de pe la anul 1500. Blazoanele pictate sunt fie de tip familial (Lénárd Barabási, vice-voievodul Ardealului; Dinastia Arpadiană; regele Ladislau al II-lea Jagello al Ungariei), ale orașelor (Cluj sau Sighișoara, Sibiu și Brașov) și ale etniilor (sași și secui). Ghidul nostru excepțional a fost Fülöp Szabolcs, pastorul bisericii. Fundalul muzical al videoclipului este creat de cei mai de seamă compozitori protestanți ai tuturor timpurilor și anume Georg Friedrich Händel (oratoriul Messia) și Johann Sebastian Bach (Toccata în D Minor).
The church in Daia, a village in southeastern Transylvania, south of the Odorheiu Secuiesc (Harghita County), was built and painted several stages during the 12th-19th centuries. The massive spread in Transylvania of the Protestant reform at the beginning of the 16th century makes the church and the whole area pass to the reformed worship, and so remain. Although the Protestant uses of those times were to cover or destroy mural paintings, the church of Daia stands out by preserving them, not even covered. The traces of paintings in the fresco can be seen on the walls: Saint George, the legends of Saint Ladislau and the ship led by Pope and the Roman-German Emperor. Instead, the ceiling of the sanctuary preserves a remarkable and unusual (for churches) Renaissance-style painting with coat of arms dating back to 1500. The painted coat of arms are either of a family type (Lénárd Barabási, the vice-voivode of Transylvania; the Arpadian Dynasty; King Ladislaus II Jagello of Hungary), cities (Cluj or Sighisoara, Sibiu and Brasov) and ethnicities (Saxons and Szeklers). Our exceptional guide was Fülöp Szabolcs, the pastor of the church. The musical background of the video is created by the most prominent Protestant composers of all time, namely Georg Friedrich Händel (Messia Oratorio) and Johann Sebastian Bach (Toccata in D Minor).

The Round Church in Geoagiu Romania built in the Eleventh Century
In the literature there are few references to this unique monument of worship in Transylvania. Rotunda Building is the only country that were left standing and can be seen. Around the church there is a cemetery, the first funerals began to be made in the eleventh century, the time of King Ladislaus I (1077 - 1095), and the last during the eighteenth century. Research cemetery was and is possible today only current area the court reformed the parish house, on land bounded strictly by its fence. In the eight campaigns of excavation, between the years 1993 - 2000, were discovered and investigated a total of 157 tombs, found in a total of 17 archaeological trenches.
The graves in the cemetery located around the rotunda funeral distinguish two horizons: one old, vintage arpadiana - coins dated from the time of kings Ladislaus I of Hungary (1077 - 1095) and Coloman (1095 - 1114) -, another more recently, with burials possibly from the thirteenth century and continued into the next century.
In terms of chronology beginnings rotunda, still maintain our opinion that it was built at the earliest, probably in the late eleventh century, the twelfth-century
Bran Castle , Dracula's Castle , Romania
Bran Castle (Romanian: Castelul Bran; German: Törzburg; Hungarian: Törcsvár), situated near Bran and in the immediate vicinity of Braşov, is a national monument and landmark in Romania. The fortress is situated on the border between Transylvania and Wallachia, on DN73. Commonly known as Dracula's Castle (although it is one among several locations linked to the Dracula legend, including Poenari Castle and Hunyad Castle), it is marketed as the home of the titular character in Bram Stoker's Dracula. There is, however, no evidence that Stoker knew anything about this castle, which has only tangential associations with Vlad III, voivode of Wallachia, the putative inspiration for Dracula. As discovered by the Dutch author Hans Corneel de Roos, the location Bram Stoker actually had in mind for Castle Dracula while writing his novel was an empty mountain top, Mount Izvorul Călimanului, 2,033 m high, located in the Transylvanian Călimani Alps near the former border with Moldavia.
The castle is now a museum open to tourists, displaying art and furniture collected by Queen Marie.[1] Tourists can see the interior individually or by a guided tour. At the bottom of the hill is a small open air museum park exhibiting traditional Romanian peasant structures (cottages, barns, etc.) from across the country. As of 2014, the castle is reportedly for sale.

SUMMARY
=======
Romania ( ( listen) ro-MAY-nee-ə; Romanian: România [romɨˈni.a] ( listen)) is a country located at the crossroads of Central, Eastern, and Southeastern Europe. It borders the Black Sea to the southeast, Bulgaria to the south, Ukraine to the north, Hungary to the west, Serbia to the southwest, and Moldova to the east. It has a predominantly temperate-continental climate. With a total area of 238,397 square kilometres (92,046 sq mi), Romania is the 12th largest country and also the 7th most populous member state of the European Union, having almost 20 million inhabitants. Its capital and largest city is Bucharest and other major urban areas include Iași, Timișoara, Cluj-Napoca, and Constanța.
The River Danube, Europe's second-longest river, rises in Germany's Black Forest and flows in a general southeast direction for 2,857 km (1,775 mi), coursing through ten countries before emptying into Romania's Danube Delta. The Carpathian Mountains, which cross Romania from the north to the southwest, include Moldoveanu Peak, at an altitude of 2,544 m (8,346 ft).Modern Romania was formed in 1859 through a personal union of the Danubian Principalities of Moldavia and Wallachia. The new state, officially named Romania since 1866, gained independence from the Ottoman Empire in 1877. At the end of World War I, Transylvania, Banat, Bukovina, and Bessarabia united with the sovereign Kingdom of Romania. During World War II, Romania was an Axis power and, consequently, an ally of Nazi Germany against the Soviet Union, fighting side by side with the Wehrmacht until 1944, when it joined the Allies and faced occupation by the Red Army's forces. Throughout wartime Romania had lost several territories, of which only Northern Transylvania was regained after the war. Following the war, Romania became a socialist republic and member of the Warsaw Pact. After the 1989 Revolution, Romania began a transition towards democracy and a capitalist market economy.
The sovereign state of Romania is a developing country and ranks 52nd in the Human Development Index. It has the world's 47th largest economy by nominal GDP and an annual economic growth rate of 7% (2017), the highest in the EU at the time. Following rapid economic growth in the early 2000s, Romania has an economy predominantly based on services, and is a producer and net exporter of machines and electric energy, featuring companies like Automobile Dacia and OMV Petrom. It has been a member of the United Nations since 1955, part of NATO since 2004, and part of the European Union since 2007. An overwhelming majority of the population identifies themselves as Eastern Orthodox Christians and are native speakers of Romanian, a Romance language.
