With some terrific day trip options available in the surrounding area, renting a car makes good sense. Without one, it’d be much more difficult to explore everything that Targoviste, 25 miles away, has to offer. Soak up the sights beginning with Zoo, Princely Court and Military Barracks. Sinaia is another popular destination. It’s 45 miles away and home to a range of intriguing things to do. Peles Castle, Sinaia Ski Resort and Cantacuzino Castle are just the start.
