... a drawbridge, but now has steps to a gateway. It is known as "Dracula’s Castle", although Vlad Tepes only came once, if that, but it does look the part.
We pay our fees, and climb up through the internal stairways, including a very steep secret stairway. There are good views into the internal courtyard and up the valley to a primary defence wall, bridge and the original hydro-electric plant building from the 19th century.
