Romanian Traditional Wedding, Corbi Village. Arges County, Pure Romania
Here at Pure Romania we truly believe that life is about moments, that kind of moments which have the power to inspire.
We organized a traditional wedding for a very beautiful couple from South Koreea (living in New York) this week. It was one of the best experiences of our lives. The event took place in Corbi Village, Arges County. We brought to life some very old Romanian traditions and we enjoyed a very pure happiness.

Romania Highlights - Curtea de Arges Monastery, a place of legend and faith
Book online the Real Dracula small group tour from Bucharest and visit Curtea de Arges Monastery:
Curtea de Arges Monastery is one of the most important Orthodox worship places in Romania, considered an truly architectural masterpiece.
The legend has it that the ruler of Wallachia hired the greatest masters to build this church. The only problem is that everything they used to build during day, it fell apart during night. But one night, Manole, one of the main architects, had a dream, showing him the way to finish the construction. They had to build in one of the walls the first person who was coming the next day to them. Unfortunately, his wife, Ana was the one who came that day to bring him food so Manole had to build her in the South wall.
At the end of the construction, the ruler of Wallachia was impressed by the beauty of the church. He then ordered his servants to take the stairs that leaded to the roof so that the masters could not come down and build a more beautiful church. Given the situation, Manole made some sieve wings to fly and he escaped from the roof, but he crushed. Legend has it that a spring appeared, representing Manole’s tears, on the place where he reached the ground. The spring actually exists next to the monastery.
Inside the church, there can be seen the graves of the Royal family of Romania: Kings Carol I and Ferdinand together with their wives, Queens Elisabeth and Mary. Outside the Orthodox Church, in the Chapels, one can see the graves of King Carol II, the third king of Romania and Queen Ana, the last queen of Romania.
Curtea de Arges Monastery is located in Curtea de Arges town and it can be reached by train or by car either from Bucharest or from Pitesti.
If you want to visit the monastery you can also book a small group day tour from Bucharest that includes a visit here.

Transfagarasan - Vidraru and Balea Lake, Romania
Transfagarasan - Vidraru and Balea Lake, Romania
Drumul DN7C -- Transfăgărășan este o cale rutieră de circulație din România, care începe în comuna Bascov, Județul Argeș de lângă orașul Pitești, în direcția orașului Curtea de Argeș și se termină la intersecția cu drumul DN1 între Sibiu și Brașov, în apropierea comunei Cârțișoara, cu o lungime de 151 km.
Pornit din comuna Bascov, după 61 km dincolo de comuna Arefu începe porțiunea așa numitului Transfăgărășan, pe o lungime de aproximativ 91 km.
Transfăgărășanul este situat pe locul al doilea ca altitudine în România după șoseaua Transalpina (DN67C) cu 2145 m din Munții Parâng.
Primul segment al Transfăgărășanului trece prin fața hidrocentralei de la Vidraru amplasată subteran în masivul Cetățuia. De aici, în apropierea cetății Poenari, drumul urcă pe serpentine și viaducte, trecând prin trei tunele mai scurte ajungând pe Barajul Vidraru, care cu ai lui 307 m leagă Munții Pleașa și Vidraru. Trecând barajul, drumul continuă în partea stângă de-al lungul lacului Vidraru pînă la începutul acestuia. În continuare drumul începe să urce în serpentine, trecând pe la Cascada Capra, pînă la partea sudică al tunelului de la Capra la Bâlea Lac, unde cu o lungime de 887 m străbate Munții Făgăraș. Tunelul Bâlea, cel mai lung tunel din România, cu o înălțime de 4,4 m, 6 m lățime și un trotuar cu o lățime de 1 m, iluminat, dar neaerisit, face legătura cu partea nordică a Transfăgărășanului.
În partea nordică a drumului, după Tunelul Bâlea Transfăgărășanul trece prin rezervația naturală Golul Alpin și Lacul Bâlea, pe la lacul glaciar Bâlea urmat de o coborâre abruptă în serpentine. Trece în apropierea cascadei Bâlea, care este o cascadă în trepte de aproximativ 68 m, cea mai mare de acest fel în România, și se află la altitudinea de aproximativ 1230 m.d.M.
În timpul iernii, de obicei de la 1 noiembrie până în 30 iunie (sectorul cuprins între kilometrul 104 de la Piscu Negru și kilometrul 130 la cabana Bâlea Cascadă), când Transfăgărășanul este închis circulației rutiere, la Lacul Bâlea se poate ajunge cu telecabina, de la cabana „Bâlea Cascadă din apropierea cascadei Bâlea.
Unul din tronsoanele cele mai dificile ale Transfăgărășanului, este cuprins între Lacul Bâlea și Bâlea Cascadă pe o lungime de 13 km. De la Bâlea Cascadă pînă la intersecția cu drumul DN1 sau și drumul european E68 în apropierea comunei Cârțișoara, mai sunt 21 km.
Transfăgărășanul trece peste 830 podețe, 27 viaducte; pentru construcția lui a fost necesar să fie dislocate mai multe milioane de tone de rocă; pentru aceasta s-au folosit de exemplu: 6520 tone de dinamită, din care 20 de tone numai la tunelul Capra -- Bâlea și multe alte materiale de construcții.
Zona montană înaltă a DN7C este deschisă pentru circulația rutieră doar în perioada iulie-octombrie a fiecărui an, întrucât drumul este înzăpezit pe timp de iarnă, iar dezăpezirea lui este nepractică. Iarna, pe acest drum accesul rutier este permis pe versantul sudic doar până cel mult la cabana Capra (kilometrul 104 - Piscu Negru, județul Argeș)), iar pe cel nordic până la Bâlea-cascadă (kilometrul 131).
Chiar și în timpul verii, traseul este unul periculos, cu deosebit de multe viraje, iar limita de viteză este impusă la 40 km/h.

LAKE VIDRARU : TRANSYLVANIA ROAD TRIP PART 1 | ROMANIA
LAKE VIDRARU : TRANSYLVANIA ROAD TRIP PART 1 | ROMANIA
We were very blessed to be able to visit Romania again. This time, we carried our parents and did a road trip to experience the nature of Romania and as well as to visit some relatives in the Transylvania Region. This video is focusing on the area called Argeș County. We started our journey at the bottom tip of the Transfăgărășan road. Also, we intended to stop at the Lake Vidraru as our first destination. We stayed at the Pensiunea Vidraru for the night. The place is truly amazing. You will feel the fresh cold air of the forest as it is located in the forest surrounded by pine trees and rivers. We went back to the Vidraru Dam to get more video shots and photos the following day. Our breakfast was at the Hotel Posada Vidraru as it is just next to the dam. Right after eating, we went straight to visit one of the nicest spot in Vidraru. It is at the Cabana Cumpăna. We took some drone shots at this are and had coffee and desert. This place is so isolated and the road is so rough. Despite of it, the view is rewarding. We recommend visiting all the places that we mentioned. And that is the end of our Vidraru adventure.

Undeva intre Targu Secuiesc si Focsani, sosea noua, peisaj frumos, Bravo ROMANIA !!!!
Visit Romania ~ Lacul Balea
Lacul Balea este cel mai mare lac glaciar si unul dintre cele mai frumoase din masivul fagarasean. Lasa-ti ochiul sa se scalde pe intinderea de apa de peste 45 000 de mp pe care altadata era o insula ce se apropia de tarm printr-un mic istm. Acum insula si istmul s-au transformat intr-o peninsula ce poarta in spate una dintre cele mai cautate cabane din Muntii Fagaras.
Merita sa ajungi in aceste frumoase locuri dimprejurul lacului si cascadei Balea. Sunt unele dintre cele mai frumoase, nu doar din acesti munti, ci din intregul lant carpatic. Lacul Balea este un lac glaciar (format in circ glaciar) situat la o altitudine de 2.040m, in Muntii Fagaras, Judetul Sibiu.
Dimensiunile lacului sunt: 360 m in lungime, suprafata de 46508 mp si adancimea de 11,35 m.
In anul 1932 lacul Balea si o suprafata de circa 180 de hectare in jurul lacului au fost declarate rezervatie stiintifica.
La Lacul Balea se poate ajunge in timpul verii cu masina, pe Transfagarasan, iar in restul timpului cu telecabina, de la cabana Balea Cascada. In Muntii Fagaras se mai afla si lacurile Capra, Podragu mic, Podragu mare, Avrig, Urlea, etc. In anul 2006 a fost construit in apropierea lacului Balea primul hotel de gheata din Europa de Est.
O suprafata de circa 180 de hectare in jurul lacului Balea a fost declarata rezervatie stiintifica inca din 1932, ce adaposteste numeroase plante (printre care floarea de colt -- Leontopodium Alpinum, bulbucii -- Trollius Europaeus, Vartejul Pamantului -- Pedirularis Oederi) si animelele ocrotite (capra neagra -- Rupicapra , rasul, acvila de munte).
Un lac in varf de munte si un peisaj ce-ti ofera o stare de liniste, departe de orasele agitate, te conving sa mergi pe transfaragasan.
