The history of Romania can be found in almost every city, town and region. A country that has been ruled by many nations and cultures for centuries or has been wandered through and traversed again and again. Each of these “visitors” left something behind, historical buildings, culinary influences, their own language and way of life, mentality, traditions and much more. The region of Transylvania was shaped by the Transylvanian Saxons, the Banat by the Danube Swabians, many towns in the west up to central Romania by the Hungarians. Viennese architects built palaces and castles in Timisoara, while on the other side of the country … Sulina in the Danube Delta blossomed into an international transshipment point for many maritime nations and the most important port in Romania.
