Travel Planet - Wild Carpathia Romania Part 2 (From the Mountains to the Sea)

  • 6 years ago
This documentary visited Romania in 2011 and discovered a garden of Eden. Unspoiled villages, pristine forests and ecosystems, a place where man has lived in harmony with nature since the dawn of time. There is nowhere else like it in Europe and so to help keep it that way, we made a film celebrating its beauty and showing the world with the aim that tourism might provide a viable alternative to wholesale destruction from illegal logging and insensitive development.

It captured people’s imagination and to our amazement the Romanian government featuring the Danube Delta, Europe’s largest wetland, the Maramures and the rich history of Moldavia. They showed Romania’s wonderful cultural heritage and the changing splendour of its seasons.
From the Mountains to the Sea
Join us for a cultural odyssey through little known parts of the southern Carpathians starting at the majestic Iron Gates and the ancient Roman Spa town of Baile Herculane. This documentary explores the remote Cerna Mountains finding historic working mills, and legendary rock formations. On our journey east we stop at a boutique winery and the stunning Cosia National Park with its grottos and picturesque monasteries. Crossing Saxon Transylvania Charlie visits the birthplace of Vlad the Impaler and meets a Romanian Princess at her ancestral home, majestic Peles Castle. In the second part we leave the mountains behind and meander down to the Danube where it branches.
