Another international overnight train arrives daily from Vienna. Also due to its affordability and comfort, train is the best way of reaching Braşov.

Poiana Braşov

The most popular Romanian ski resort and an important tourist centre preferred by many tourists not only from Romania, but also from Italy, France, Germany, Switzerland and other European states. It's easily accessible by car but there are regular buses operated by Braşov Transit (RAT Braşov) which can be taken from "Livada Poştei". ATV's, ski, luges and snowboards at a reasonable price. Poiana Braşov is host to a number of hotels, restaurant, cafe bars and some nice nightclubs. Two of the better known restaurants are Şura Dacilor (The Dacians' Barn) and Coliba Haiducilor (The Outlaws' Shack) which serve traditional food. Next to the road and near parking merchants sell manufactured wooden decorations or jewellery at a price lower than in down town.

Râşnov town and fortress

This old Saxon town and citadel (15km to the west of Braşov) can easily be combined with a visit to the fortified church in Christian, which is on the same route. There are good bus (and slower train) connections.

Inside the Râşnov citadel you can find an interesting museum, archery, a cafe/tavern, and some excellent views of the city and surrounding mountains. You can also see old Saxon houses and churches. Near Râşnov you can do paragliding and bungee-jump, as well as horse riding, hiking and alpinism.
