Romania\u2019s famous Pele\u0219 and Peli\u0219or Castles, located in the mountain town of Sinaia, will limit daily access to 2,000 and 1,500 visitors, respectively, according to an announcement<\/a> published on Pele\u0219 Castle\u2019s official website and quoted by Biziday.ro<\/a>. Entry tickets must be purchased for specific time slots as part of a broader effort to better manage crowds and protect the integrity of the monuments.<\/p>\n

From Wednesday to Sunday, access will be organized in four daily time intervals. On Wednesdays, visitors can choose between 10:00\u201311:00, 11:00\u201312:45, 12:45\u201314:30, and 14:30\u201316:00.

Narcis-Dorin Ion, director of the National Pele\u0219 Museum, said the decision was made to ensure rational use of the monuments and to organize visits in a way that prevents overcrowding. \u201cBy spreading visitors across time slots, we reduce the risk of deterioration to these heritage sites,\u201d he told Agerpres<\/a>.<\/p>\n

One of the most beautiful castles in Europe and among the most impressive in Romania, the royal\u00a0Pele\u0219 Castle\u00a0sits at the foot of the Bucegi Mountains in the town of Sinaia.
