This article is an itinerary.
The Transylvania Triangle Train Tour is a 12-day "self-guided" train tour of the main attractions of Transylvania, Romania.
Twelve days gives you enough time to see all of the main cities and destinations, while being short enough for those who don't have the time for more in-depth travel. You get to see the highlights of every town, which is enough for many of the destinations.
The tour starts from Brasov and continues to the following cities in order:
Being a circular, or rather a triangular tour, nearly all of Transylvania's main sights are covered. Some people wish to start the tour in Bucharest, Romania's capital, which is not in Transylvania but is the main Romanian entry point. If you start from Bucharest, travel from there to Brasov and back is very easy, made possible by fast train connections hourly. The tour is triangular in that its "corners" are in Brasov, Oradea and Timisoara, and the journey between these cities occurs in mostly straight lines.
