Fortress of Deva, Transylvania, Romania
4.0 (237 reviews) Spent 2-3 hours Ranking #1 in Western Romania Castles
Best attraction in Deva
Deva is my hometown so I strongly suggest to go visit the fortress by foot, it's a great, not difficult 30 min walk. The refurbishment they did is amazing, it looks much better now and gives many more things to see. Also, more description of the fortress is displayed as you visit it. From the top you have a full view of the city in the middle of a peace oasis, as usually it's not crowded.

Old citadell
Must do while in Deva! An old citadell build on a volcanic hill, which gives you a great overview on the city. Very nice rehabilitation works which struggle to introduce this objective into the great league of tourism. Interesting view, nice place for a sunset, beautiful place to go downhill with a bike.

Great view from the top
Go up the GATE 1 (poarta 1) by car if you are not willing to climb all the steps. There are a few left even there, but easyer. Lovely view from the top of the city and surroundings. The fortress was being renovated while we were there and the funicular wasn't working either.
