What  we  planned?  

Unquestionably  Romania’s  most  famous  building,  The  Palace  of  Parliament  (known  universally  as  Casa  Poporului)  was  built  during  the  “darkest  days”  of  the  Nicolae  Ceausescu  regime.      Standing  84m  above  ground  level  on  12  floors,  the  building  has  long  been  shrouded  in  mystery,  rumor  and  hyperbole.    The  tour  will  reveal  some  of  the  mysteries.  

Tour  of  The  Palace  of  Parliament  

   

In  Bucharest  

The  Village  Museum  

 An  open-­‐air  ethnographic  museum  showcasing  traditional  Romanian  village  life.  

Parachute  Jumps  

 Experience  an  unforgettable  moment  during  your  stay  in  Bucharest.    A  passionate  parachute  jumper,  who  is  also  an  INSEAD  Alumnus,  will  be  happy  to  assist  you.  He  is  also  the  founder  of  the  company  offering  these  services.

What  we  planned?  

After  a  full  day  of  visiting,  we’ll  take  you  to  experience  the  vibrant  Bucharest  nightlife.    First,  a  traditional  dinner  with  amazing  Romanian  food  and  a  lot  of  INSEAD  alumni.  Then,  we’ll  have  drinks  in  the  Old  City.      For  those  who  are  keen  for  clubbing,  we’ll  be  going  to  one  of  the  posh  clubs  in  town.

What  we  planned?  

The  second  day  of  our  trip  will  take  us  to  Transylvania.    We’ll  introduce  you  to  our  kings  and  counts  J,  we’ll  have  lunch  at  1,400m  altitude  and  we’ll  visit  an  awesome  cave  (if  we  are  lucky,  we’ll  get  there  just  in  time  for  the  concert).  

Peles  Castle  

 Located  in  Sinaia  (44  km  from  Brasov),  Peles  Castle  is  considered  by  many  one  of  the  most  beautiful  castles  in  all  Europe.  It  was  the  final  resting  place  for  several  Romanian  monarchs  including  King  Carol  I,  who  died  here  in  1914.  

In  Transylvania  

Bran  Castle  –  aka  Dracula’s  Castle  

 Surrounded  by  an  aura  of  mystery  and  legend  and  perched  high  atop  a  200-­‐foot-­‐high  rock,  Bran  Castle  owes  its  fame  to  its  imposing  towers  and  turrets  as  well  as  to  the  myth  created  around  Bram  Stocker's  Dracula.  

Valea  Cetatii  Cave  

   Within  a  natural  protected  area,  the  Valea  Cetăţii  Cave  is  an  outstanding  touristic  attraction  that  offers  a  tourist  trail  of  incredible  brightness  and  beauty.  Moreover,  the  city  Philharmonics  of  Brasov  holds  weekly  concerts  in  the  cave!!

Discover  Romania  

What  we  planned  

For  those  who  are  not  so  keen  on  climbing  trees,  we  can  organize  a  separate  trip  to  Brasov,  where  you  can  do  some  sightseeing,  some  shopping  and  enjoy  some  good  food.  

Adventure  Park  

   For  those  who  want  to  experience  the  nature,  we  can  organize  a  few  hours  of  fun  in  the  forest  –  in  one  of  the  most  amazing  outdoor  activities  park  in  Romania.  Buckle  up!    

In  Transylvania  

Sibiu  –  the  cultural  capital  of  Europe    

 One  of  the  most  beautiful  cities  in  Romania,  Sibiu  was  selected  the  Cultural  Capital  of  Europe  in  2007.  We  are  proud  to  take  you  for  a  stroll  in  the  old  town  and  maybe  visit  the  Brukenthal  Museum.  Otherwise,  the  bistros  and  restaurants  offer  a  nice  way  to  spend  your  afternoon  J  

Sighisoara  –  the  medieval  city    

   If  time  allows,  we  would  love  to  take  you  to  Sighisoara,  a  city  that  still  maintains  a  strong  medieval  atmosphere.
