  • Today we start our road trip around the Romanian countryside.
    After some stressfull thoughts, we manage to rent a car and drive it to Corvin Castle and try to make it into the Apuseni mountains before check-in closes at our hotel!
    Where we booked our car: economybookings.tp.st/GfQVwkFs
    It was a stressful start but that doesnt take anything away from how absolutely stunning Romania is and we can absolutely confirm that renting a car is the BEST way to travel Romania.

    Late to the party, but I'll give it a shot. The white stork nests are massive indeed. Big birds need loads of space to raise the chick(s). And they're protected to my knowledge; it's why the power companies have to take measures to protect the birds from being electrocuted (and also the overhead lines from accidental short-circuits), and mount their (existing) nests on those metal structures. Oh, and normally it has to be on the same pole (location) as the birds are quite sensitive to that stuff. Same goes for buildings, as some storks build their nests on top of chimneys, and people have to find solution to both clear the chimney and protect the bird as well.

    • @JordanandEmily
      @JordanandEmily  ปีที่แล้ว

      Ohh that's so cool, glad they are protected and people go to such effort to make sure they are okay! 😊 thanks for all the info!

    Hi. The fact is the Medieval castles had both the interior and sometimes the exterior walls plastered and painted. So what you saw was the original look. Many times the walls were covered in tapestries or paintings. They didn't left the stones showing, for them it was cold and ugly, especially for a nobles' residence like this one. Many castles nowadays look like they weren't finished because time is not kind to any building, and many times the authorities didn't tried to bring back the old look.

    • @JordanandEmily
      @JordanandEmily  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      We had no idea! we assumed the exposed brick was the normal look for castle back in the day😅
      Hollywood lied to us! Thanks for clearing up that fact for us though! 😀

    Most movies are Western and Northern European stories where the castles look like you expected the Corvin castle to look like. In "the letter for the king", from Netflix, the scene where the protagonists arrive at a monastery in the mountains, is filmed in Eastern Europe and reproduces the interior of the castle correctly, as is the one of the Corvins that you visited
