A few corrections: "Martisor" day is not May 1st, it is March 1 and symbolizes the first day of spring. The food specialty " drob de miel" is not a national dish but is one of the main staples at Easter time. A national dish would include "sarmale cu mamaliga" sau "ciorba de perisoare". If you plan to visit Romania, do not use the spelling and pronunciation used in the video to greet locals or ask for directions. That is a very poor Google translation. Instead, ask first in plain English and then listen to their response in Romanian. A more efficient way to learn the basics.

To me the best Romanian food, which I can't get anymore, was smoked pork muscle that's been preserved in pork lard. My grandma used to make it. She'd take a couple of pieces out, fry them and serve them to me with mamaliga and a nice simple veggie sauce we call tocanita de ceapa si ardei (just a bit of freshly picked onion, bellpeppers, tomatoes and parsley). I've never had better tasting pork

[@MrGiant]

Sounds great!

@@MrGiantWhat he calls “mamaliga” here is in fact polenta which is boiled maize made thicker and harder than porridge and served as replacement for fries or bread as a side to the “stew” called “tocanitza”.

I am Romanian, born and lived there for 19 yrs before I left the country. Some of the facts mentioned in this video, I didn't know myself, either. All the traditions and celebrations and stuff, I only know a few of them. I learned a great deal about my country from youtube channels visitors. I do love my country and would like to go back and visit some day. Romania is indeed very nice country and has a rich historic past. Food and culture and hospitality is good as well. I hope every tourist visitor has a good experience visiting there. God bless Romania.

[@dansebastiancostin3590]

As a person born and raised in Romania it's fascinating and humbling to see people be interested in our culture, food and scenery. As for food I would recommend, definitely "drob de miel" as they said in the video. It's just amazing 😻. And also "sarmale" which is basically a mix of usually ground pork meat with rice seasoned with condiments, wrapped up in cabbage/lettuce leaves and then boiled. Mmm. The outcome is definitely to die for. From what I heard it wasn't INVENTED in Romania but we're pretty much known for it being one of our staple foods nowadays. 6:33 - Pretty sure they meant 1st of March not May...

[@MrGiant]

[@ferencercseyravasz7301]

Just two things from a Romanian citizen: 1. While those superstitions, traditions and mystical beliefs do exist indeed they are far less important today, far less people practice them or even know about them than - say - a century ago. Mostly in remote rural areas. It's a bit annoying to me that many of the youtube videos that present this country focus so much on these magical elements of the local folklore, people who watch them might get the completely wrong idea that a typical Romanian is permanently preoccupied with these, or that if they ever visit this country they will witness those things. In fact there's little chance of any tourist ever seeing one of these ancient traditions, and even if they do get to see them, chances are, the village people are putting up a staged show for them and if the tourists weren't there, they would not bother with all that to be honest. 2. The pronunciation of every Romanian word in the video is badly butchered, don't try to imitate that :) If the words weren't also written on the screen I wouldn't even know what he was trying to say, it's so bad.

[@paulinskychisalitaelloquil1394]

Such bad pronunciation at least the comentator could have done his homework on how to say thigs corectly even google translator says it better 😅😅

I must disagree with you... They are still places where tradition is hold just like hundreed years ago... I still wear proudly the Mărțișor every year on the 9'th of March West all eat the Saints. On the days between Christmas and New Years Eve you see very often disguised Young mens going with Capra on the streets... We have many other traditions that are heald on and are not presented în this video... Ex: Search the meening of "Sorcova", "Plugușorul", "Udatul fetelor în ziua de Paște " ...

[@ninamaier8436]

I wanted yo respond to one of them Who said that the traditions are nota heald anymore this days and it came ouț as a comment to you... sorry! I am impressed of you re reactions to the video and yes... România is a rich country and this is why they are and was so many who want a sliece of it... you must know that the Roman Empire was reborn with the tones of gold and silver they took from our Land once called Dacia... Thumbs up to you and you re personality! Wish you all the best!

[@valentinsimion4945]

1th of March! is the "Mărțișor" (not May as you mentioned)! ”Călușarii” are not at all ”a secret society”, they are a group of friesds that respect a tradition for New Year. And, actually, in Romania is a blasfemy if you do not recieved ”Călușari” if they are arround, but actually people beleave that if you receive their dance on New Year Eve , you are blessed! And sorry, the guy who made that video, did not care at all about the ”fonetics”! Sounds absolutly horible in Romanian language

Bran castle is branded as "Dracula's castle" for tourists. The actual castle of Vlad Tepes, after which the fictional character was created, is Cetatea Poienari, situated on the southern end of the Transfagarasan.

[@gunengineering1338]

Here's some equally and even more interesting facts about Romania: * Transylvania comes from the latin words, "Trans-silva" meaning, "trans-forest" or "cross-forest". * To answer one of your questions, during medieval times Romania (particularly Wallachia, Transylvania and part of Moldavia) was far more important as a barrier between the ottoman controlled eastern lands and Europe. For that reason no fewer than 2 Romanians are credited with saving Europe and one of them the whole world. One of them, many of you already know. Vladislava Basarab. Aka Vlad the Impaler. The other one is a much more interesting figure imo name Janos Hunyadi or Iancu de Hunedoara in Romanian. He was also the father of king Matthias Corvin. * Although the D-Day of the middle ages was fought in present day Serbia, not Romania, the defense was led by a Romanian. That again was Janos Hunyadi. It was the 1456 battle of Nandorfehervar. You may have never heard of it but you've probably heard of things relating to it. San Juan Capistrano was one of the leaders of the defense and the Victory was counted as a miracle in his canonization. The ringing of church bells at noon is a consequence of this battle. And despite being largely forgotten, it is believed that this battle decided the fate of the world. Also, it bears striking resemblance to the battle of Middle Earth in the lord of the rings and may have played an inspirational role. * There's a castle in Romania called Turnu Rosu which means "red tower". It has that name because; duting medieval times, it's defenders mixed the blood of fallen Ottoman troops into the mortar when they did repairs to the walls as a warning to leave them alone. The blood coloring in the mortar is visible to this day. Web search the name and you'll probably find pictures of it. * Sighisoara is considered the most well preserved medieval town in Europe. * Bran castle is located in Brasov (medieval Chronstadt or Cronstad) which was Transylvanian territory. Vlad the impaler never ruled Transylvania. He ruled Wallachia. So; despite all the Dracula's castle nonsense, there's very little to suggest Vlad the Impaler ever set foot in the castle and he almost certainly never controlled it. Other than MAYBE a brief detainment siege during his attack on Timpa hill. * Speaking of Dracula. Dracula is made up of "dracul" meaning dragon (draco in latin) symbolically while an "a" or "ya" at the end of the name means, "Jr". So Dracula means, "Dragon Jr." or "son of the dragon". So technically, Jason Scott Lee can be called Dracula. 😁

Very interesting, thank you for sharing. I will have to look up Janos Hunyadi for sure. You have a great day. Take care.

[@gunengineering1338]

@@MrGiant same to you.

[@Robert-vb5jd]

Actually 'dracul' means 'the devil' in romanian. 'Drac' translates to 'devil'. The 'ul' at the end of the word is what makes it from 'devil' to 'the devil' himself😂

Thank you for showing to the world my beautiful country!Maybe one day you come visit and see all these places!

[@MrGiant]

[@togurotoguro]

@@MrGiant When you get here try ,,sarmale,, and ,,palinca,, trust me on this one,you wont regret it!

[@FAIKU_EU]

RESPECT !

[@geeninebee]

There's some mistakes, like confusing 1 of May (Labour Day) with 1 of March, which is Mărțișor. There's also some bad prononciation on places and usual phrases. Sarmale is also a traditional food , in vine leaves or in fermented cabbage. Almost every family has it's own recipe. And the ear tingling it's not the most accurate word, it's whizzing or ringing in the ear. Tingling or itching of the nose is also a thing, and it means you're either get scolded or beaten.

Thank you for the insight of this part of Europe called Romaia! Wish you a warm welcome to our land! 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Thank you. Have a great weekend.

As a Romanian, I find it extremely fun that the narrator's pronunciation got some English words wrong and how every other Romanian names were so far off from how they should sound that even I wouldn't recognize them if heard! Buna pronounced "boonheaj" mean nothing lol... it sounds more like "boonah" and it's a short for Buna Ziua which means good day. just funny facts :)

[@MrGiant]

It all sounds so delicious.

[@Michelangelo84]

something that we do not like as people, namely the fact that a certain ethnic group that does not belong to Romania go all over the globe and beg and shame us as Romanians, then we are pointed with the finger as if we are all the same as this ethnicity.

Thank you! Cheers!

Sir u need to try Drob (the food in the video) it has a strong taste and it is very easy to make.With this video u have all my respect now 😊

[@MrGiant]

I will check it out. Thank you for suggesting. Thank you for watching the video with us.

[@Robert.sPlaythroughs]

That Drob is Good , with raw onnions on the side and some tomatoes... it's like a cold aperitive... it's not a full meal... but it's good, really good.

[@bogdanb282]

Thank u Mr giant

[@MrGiant]

You are wlecome. Have a great weekend.

[@ionutspivac7932]

About the drob do you like the Scottish Haggis? Think ten times better all that flavours mixed together . You need to try it😉

[@MunsterNox]

In Romania we can own land, but we can not own the riches of the land. If you discover Coal or Oil on your land, the government will buy your land and sell the exploitations rights to private companies. Often, the land is bought at a fraction of what is worth, sadly.

[@dyzzRo]

i guess another said it but the "Martisor" starts on 1st of March, an i fokin luv it :D

[@anrei0000]

Sadly, lots of companies taking natural resources from Romania nowadays aren't even from Romania, but working through political leverage to take gold, wood and others outside of the country.

[@MrGiant]

That is so sad. Hope that changes soon.

[@anrei0000]

​@@MrGiant the country is amazing, the people need a lot of healing from the past, meanwhile others take advantage. I guess this has been our story for at least a couple thousand years ago. Cheers!

..admir acest clip. Mai sunt multe de stiut , de exemplu in minutul 12:40 comparativ cu arcul de triumf s-a zis ca imita sau ca a fost inspirat de turnul Eiffel.. pai, nu stiu cum sa zic daca a fost sau nu inspirat de turnul Eiffel, dar daca ai studia Turnul eiffel poate vei descoperii ceva tot romanesc acolo in ansamblul structurii si metalele si de unde provin ele si unde au fost fabricate mare parte din ele :)) ............sincer cred ca mai sunt atat de multe lucruri de stiut, unice, despre Romania de nici eu ca Roman nu le stiu :) multumesc , acest clip ma mai luminat inclusiv si pe mine :)

[@MrGiant]

Thank you for watching with me. Lots to learn, very interesting.

[@valdone0]

We have a history of 2.000 years so thats why so many traditions.

[@tenzindolma6266]

We certainly have a history MUCH OLDER THAN 2000 years... Our antiquity, that of the Getae and the Dacians, only ends with the Roman conquests, but stretches far behind them.

[@lalayastill610]

@@tenzindolma6266 👍

[@gheoman]

Our root ancestors goes back more than 2000 years, only thinking to getae and dacian period, BC, and all the ancient much older cultures like Cucuteni. What to say about the 35000 years old woman skull discovered in the Muierii's cave?

[@tenzindolma6266]

[@gabigeorgescu3901]

Hey MR. Giant, you spoke well about the fight for the minerals. Our government sold all the mineral extraction to foreign states, like Austria, Germany, USA, Canada, and the list is long. Thats why they let us join UE and Nato in the first place, nothing comes for free... And another factor is the greed for money of our governors. It's sad but it's the truth :( Good luck and take care!

Sunflowers are also a huge part of Romania's exports .the seeds are loaded onto ships on their black sea ports.

[@singleasasin]

Romanians have a lot of traditions, and, are happy to teach foreigners about them, many romanians knowing to speak english ! ... 😊👍 Many romanians are very welcoming in regards of foreigners ! ... 🙂 Many romanians know their history, and, Romania's history is very rich in events ! ... 🙂

[@mariarevnic6415]

Romanians eat a lot of meat. Different pork dishes are associated with Christmas. Lamb dishes are associated with Easter. Drob is a meatloaf-y thing with a specific texture given by the organs used in making it. It can be nice, it can also get dry (given the fact that baked liver or kidneys can get dry). Lamb hasn't yet the strong flavour of mutton (but has a specific flavour) so that is a plus. I am surprised that, of all the dishes, this is the one that made the list.
