A friend of mine is going there next month on a mission for the poor. It is a very poor country who has tried to embrace Democrcay, like it's neighbor, Hungary, but has not had tourist appeal. It's major attractions are snow skiing and Translyvanian Castles.
Many of the people are of Hungarian ancestory. When Hungary was divided up in World War I, much of the country became Romanian. When Russia invaded Hungary in 1956, many fled to Romania.
It's difficult to find tours to Central Europe from USA, but I would love to visit there since my parents originally came from Hungary.

Romania is a country in Southeastern Europe. It is bordered by Hungary and Serbia in the west and Bulgaria to the south along the Danube River, Ukraine and Moldova in the northeast. Romania has also a stretch of sea coast on the Black Sea and the eastern and southern Carpathian mountains run through its centre. Historic Bucharest , a major tourist attraction, is its capital and largest city. Romania has been an active member of NATO since 2004, and is also an acceding country to the European Union. The EU Accession Treaty was signed in early 2005, and Romania is due to join the European Union on January 1, 2007. Starting from January 1, 2007, Romania will have the seventh largest population in the EU.
