I love how you guys go to non-mainstream places in Romania. As a Romanian living in the West (son of immigrants) I never really got to know much about Romania's history or about touristic places. I kinda started learning on my own and I swore I was confident in knowing all places of interest in Romania and their history; but I was definetely wrong as I had no idea about this beautiful citadel.

[@hat5564]

Yeah. People usually only visit Transylvania or Bucharest, this is pretty much the only channel exploring the other regions, coming from someone living in the Moldovan region countryside

[@andreivasiliu1807]

wow you guys nailed it in this one. I would 100% do everything you did there. I'm particularly impressed with the accommodation you found. I live in this area of Romania and had no idea that place existed. The tavern would be a great place to spend the evening over some drinks, before you retreat to a sauna and a cozy fire! How much did you pay?

[@JetLagWarriors]

Wooo! Actually, shoutout to Bogdan - he found the place for us, and even paid for it! So, we are not sure the price. But, yes. the tavern was great -- Bogdan and Ivana and I had some wine, some palinca and some vishinata. With the fire rolling in the background. Just great. Would recommend this accommodation!

Stephen the Great was Dracula's first-degree cousin and they were about the same age. When Vlad, as a teenager, had to take refuge from his enemies, he went to his uncle Bogdan II who was Stephen's father and when Bogdan got killed a few years later by his own brother, both Vlad and Stefan had to run to Transylvania seeking John Hunyadi's protection

@warriors: the region that you visited is famous for a culture from neolithical period(stone age)called cucuteni-trypilia(cucuteni is in moldova and trypilia is in serbia)...is famous for half burried round houses....this culture is called old europe civilisation and it was formed before the indo-european invasion(the yamna culture-the theory of famous Maria Gimbutas-the lithuanian researcher of kurgan-yamna culture)...that means the DNA of romanians is VERY OLD..that is why romanians know a lot things about medicinal herbs, natural treatments(like tuica and pepper...LOL),apiculture and how to work the land..all this ancient information was transferred to the first invasion of indo europeans giving birth to a melting pot of cultures called later DACIA...so you are walking on one of the most ancient civilisation of europe (between 5500-2500 BCE)...this cucuteni culture was a culture of agricultural people where woman were leaders and man were listening called matriarhat..the most famous godess of this culture was mother earth who was represented by an old naked fat grandmother representing all the signs of fertility...in those time grandmothers were the leaders..this customs remained in the romanian culture..if you go to visit a traditional romanian family the grandmother is the person that knows everything.... funny fact:Bogdan the man that you meet ..his name is the name of the first ruler of moldavia..a legendary hero.... also if you have time you can read about tartaria tablets....is on you tube..the new discoveries on those tablets sustain the theory that the first form of writing was not born in summer or egypt but in romanian lands ..... enjoy a nice moldavian experience!!! have fun warriors!! all the best from brasov!!!with respect your greekman forever fan!!!!

Wow, warriors, Moldovan landscapes appear to be so very different from Transylvanian ones. They look like two different countries (oops! shouldn't have said that, probably). Seriously, those more western regions you went to were bliss, with their expansive hills and valleys. Some of these Moldovan areas are so surprisingly flat, but gorgeously green and "aromatic", as Ivana was quizzing you about. (That was an ugly word you used, Ivana. At your age, madam, we used to say "Oh! It's a bit fresh in here", and were perfectly understood. "Who cut the cheese?" was another one. ) But, great answer to Ivana, Steve. Very resourceful of you. You very nearly succeeded in exonerating yourself. Quite convincing overall. I don't know now which of either Transylvania or Moldova I wish to be re-incarnated in later on. It's a tough one. I suppose I will get the one I have deserved to get through my behaviour in this, my current life. Did you know that some people in Thailand say that naughty monks get reincarnated as the dogs you usually see hanging round Buddhist monasteries and temples there? Thanks, warriors, wonderful. You are really slaving to keep us happy.

The reason the bridge has that shape and is that long, has to do with the fact that most men are right handed. That means they had to wear the shied on the left side, leaving the right side open to the archers in the citadel. If they tried to turn to block arrows with the shield they could not use the right hand, with the sword, efficient and the advance was slow, leaving them longer exposed to archers. Also, the bridge had to be narrow, along with the gates, so fewer men could cross or enter the gates at the same time.
