THE TRIP, IN A FEW WORDS

A little time in Craiova.
One centre.

Use this as an optional Craiova overnight built around the city centre and a currently operating Christmas fair. Start near Piața Mihai Viteazul and keep the walk compact after the journey.

Craiova is an alternative stop to plan independently, not an extra evening to squeeze between Paphos and the Brașov castle route. Arrange the full journey and any onward overnight before adding it.

A NOTE FROM ALISHA & MATT

A few decisions
before you go.

Choose the main visit first, then fit the smaller stops around it.

Alisha & Matt
01

Treat it as an alternative.

Choose Craiova deliberately and arrange the surrounding journeys; it is not part of a fixed continuous route here.

02

Check the current fair.

Use the city’s programme rather than expecting a particular old display or show.

03

Keep the onward day roomy.

If travelling onward to the Carpathians, account for the complete drive and daylight.

BEFORE YOU GO

A few good questions.

How much time does this plan cover?

Craiova is an alternative stop to plan independently, not an extra evening to squeeze between Paphos and the Brașov castle route. Arrange the full journey and any onward overnight before adding it.

Does this depend on seasonal displays?

The main sights form the core walk. Seasonal stalls, displays and events depend on the local programme; check the visitor information linked below.
