A vast open-air museum on the shore of Herastrau Lake displaying more than 270 authentic peasant houses, churches, windmills, and farmsteads relocated from across Romania. Wandering its lanes is like touring rural Romania through the centuries, and it is one of Europe's oldest and largest open-air museums. Excellent value for the price.
