With some awesome day trip options in the surrounding area, having your own car makes sense. Without one, it’d be much more difficult to enjoy all that Ploiesti, 35 miles away, has to offer. Among your first stops here should be Ilie Oana Stadium, Central Market Hall and Clock Museum. The locals are also likely to point you toward Buzau, 50 miles away. If you can only see one attraction here, make sure it’s Vergu-Manaila House. (But we’d also recommend St. Sabbas Cathedral and The Communal Palace.)
