Is romania the most beautiful country in eastern europe?

is romania the most beautiful country in eastern europe?

Ive never heard anyone say man lets go to romania

I'm sure there is an uberjeet or a wolt monkey in there somewhere.

good
your country is a globalized shithole where natives suffer from gorillions of tourists infecting their cities

Would've looked better under Hungarian rule

Ironic

and the philippines would've looked better under spain (unironically though)

Might as well just say Transylvania all those cities are there

I feel genuinely embarrassed by such an image, not gonna lie.

even if he has his whole family here?
btw, Romania is a popular tourist spot here nowadays, but ofc I don't compare us with Italians

may I ask you why radu.

why are literally all, without even one exception, pics from this post from Transylvania and not even a single one from Vallachia/Moldova/Oltenia?

proud of our german heritage. communism destroyed the other regions but even shitcescu did not have the balls to ruin transylvania with soulless commie blocks (for the most part...)
until the 1950s bucharest looked like paris
you would know too polishbro...

yeah but i could at least find several examples of "european-looking" towns from eastern Poland (even if less than from western Poland). Is that possible in case of Romania? At least one cozy Central European town somewhere in Vallachia or Moldova?

It's not Romanian architecture, it's mostly not build by Romanians and is just straight up generic German one

At the very least Iasi should have some nice cultural buildings.

Cities in Muntenia and Moldova were affected by the 1977 earthquake

op image looks like croatian towns before communism demolished 90% of everything

yeah, single buildings between the sea of grey commieblocks, that's not really what I expected

I visited croatia last year
I think everyone's mental image of croatia is a beautiful country but damn you're the same as us bro...

Yeah it looks fine. What is the cheapest city there? I was planning to go either Romania or Bulgaria for the digital nomad meme and stop working living as cheap as possible a year or two.

there's inevitably some commie bloc or modern building somewhere

Croatia is made up of 3 parts, just like Romania
2 are beautiful (Dalmatia and Kajkavia), 1 is rough (Slavonia)

sad
maybe there is some small town in eastern/southern Romania that has some old town with beautiful buildings tho?

the smallest cities are gonna be the cheapest, duh, just look them up

Not the best person to analyze this since I haven't traveled much in the country but there are some cities with at least a nice central region.
Craiova seem nice, also in some videos of people walking along. Also Iasi and Piatra Neamt, but in most others it seems even the central part where there is the large church or some other historic building you immediately have commie blocs just a few meters away

It also doesn't help that these cities don't have that many images and media available compared to those in Transylvania

It also doesn't help that these cities don't have that many images and media available compared to those in Transylvania

why? is there some unbalance and unfair preference in how Romanian media treat different regions of the country?

transylvania is simply more popular and relevant
kys retarded pole

That's partially due to cities in Transylvania being better for tourism which is true. But there's definitely a bias too.
Like stereotype about town in South and East are gypsies, poverty and drunks (works for villages too) , while stereotype for West all positive things
Like there's also lot of gypsy mafia in Timisoara, not just in the South, and some of the cities in the South and East, even if uglier, are more important economically than some in teh West , Galati, Craoiva, Pitesti.

He was simply curious

The staff of the passport control seems to be offended when I said I was visiting only Bucharest.

don't get angry, i was just interested how it works in Romania, because here it's the opposite
thanks for an answer, as i said, here it's the other way round (east is more promoted than west in the media despite being objectively poorer/uglier) but that has strong historical basis (east is "truly Polish" while west is "German, not our history") - this is sad because many objectively beautiful architectural gems in western Poland stay ruined because they don't get enough funding because "it's German architecture" meanwhile peasant huts in eastern Poland get a lot more money ("because it's our genuine culture")

he was passive aggressive but obviously your autistic ass doesn't get it

errrm, Romania is in Central Europe though.

i wasn't, more like you're way too sensitive
i just like learning such details about romania because many trends in romania can be somehow related to poland - sometimes directly, sometimes they're opposite

why do europeans jack each otheroff while talking about cities?? dont you realize they look almost identical?
The american continient has more natural beauty europe ever could.

you can find single buildings or a street or two in the old center but thats about it

youre just coping because you live in favella.
yeah probably. Although Croatia is also a close contender

objectively beautiful architectural gems in western Poland stay ruined because they don't get enough funding because "it's German architecture" meanwhile peasant huts in eastern Poland get a lot more money ("because it's our genuine culture")

1) That's a good thing (if true)
2) You definitely did rebuild a huge amount of German architecture that was destroyed during WW2, you rpobably just can't rebuild all of it due to limited funding

Also, these discussions have political bias also
I remember how these decades we also had people, sometimes foreign NGOs complain how Ceusescu and/or post-communist Romania destroyed the "architectural gems" in Transylvania, the architectural gems in question often being some small manors build by nobles in 19th century. All while Transylvanian cities remained almost intact

Nobody cared that a large historical monastery and library, like this one in Bucharest was destroyed by Ceausescu and never rebuild.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Văcăreşti_Monastery
I guess it's also because it was Orthodox and "Orthodox BAD" for those intellectuals

1) That's a good thing (if true)

it's not, because our culture is one thing but we unironically have buildings that are objectively gems by all-European standards yet they are in ruins because "they're German".
for example they still can't find money to renovate pic rel and we have dozens of ruined buildings of similar size and beauty, at the same time they can renovate some hut in eastern Poland 3 times in a row

more like the government not being proactive in doing things to increase tourism in other places
transylvania gets a lot of tourism just from the dracula/vampires stuff. So people hear of transilvania, want to travel there, google it, and then find out its in Romania.
as for the rest of the country, the government pretty much completely ignores it.

yeah, it always felt weird to me that Romania doesn't promote its coast at all. People go to Bulgaria to the beach like crazy but not to Romania, even though it's the same sea. Now Romania is kind of a popular tourist destination for Poles but it's almost only about Transylvania + Bucharest, not even the coast or anything else.

I'm no expert but Romanian littoral is flatter, as in flat plain into sea, while Bulgarian littoral is steeper and more abrupt. Our is very straight, the Bulgarian one has many gulfs and capes.
The actual geographic jewel is the Delta

The EE power ranking is

Czechia < Poland < Baltics < Romania = Croatia < Serbia < rest of the Balkans

why croatia so low?

t. never been any of the countries

he's a self hating Serbian but his self hate is only enough to hate Serbia but already not enough to love Croatia

You’re right, it’s above Romania probably

Dubrovnik is God tier, but it doesn’t have much else

the location, sea and climate should alone make it above everyone else on the list desu maybe outside czechia

99% of the country looks like this
4o

yeah you're right, if you mean overall appeal. but im strictly about architecture.
