For all those interested in Dracula (Vlad Tepes), this is the place to be. When you climb the steps of the tower you feel like you are taking part in some important historical event, knowing that so many rulers lived here. There are many pictures and maps on the walls, which immediately take you to that period. I suggest visiting the tower at night or at sunset because it offers an amazing view of the city and the domain.
Nice view over the old city of Targoviste.Kids enjoy best.Less than 1 hour visit.The history is provided by the panels
A lot of stairs, you really have to work to get on top but the view is totally worth it. You can see the park, breath fresh air, and enjoy the perspective over the whole city.
Targoviste is a beautiful town, with a lot of history. The Royal Court was home to many Roumanian leaders. I recommend visiting for a trip in history.
Chindia Tower is a wonderful place in Targoviste. You can sightsee over the city and learn some things about Romanian history.. The side nearby the tower is quite modern. There are the ruins of the old fortress. A must-go in Dambovita county !
Was built during the reign of Vlad Tepes,it has been used as an observation tower. It was the higest proint of Targoviste for many years. It îs a beautiful view from the top it worth to see it.
Chindiei tower is part of the ruins of Targoviste. There are a few steps to get up but it is worth it for the view.
Located within a short walk of the town centre the site is well worth a visit, forget modern Dracula and get the history.
Climbing up the narrow spiral stairs of Chindiei Tower is like getting back in time in the time of "voievod" (the medieval king of the region) and the posters of the inner walls helps you doing this by showing you pages of real history (for who is interested). Reaching at the upper round platform is like a sudden landing in nowadays, because all the surroundings of the tower (except the Royal Court ruins that are placed in the same location) are from a dissapointing modernism (with no architectural homogeneity).
Great place to travel. It is a must see objective in Târgovişte. Built more than 500 years ago, the tower is still in good shape. You can climb the stairs in few minutes. From upstairs you can admire a beautiful panorama of Târgovişte, especially of Chindia's park. The tower is part of a large complex, with an old and beautiful Royal Church, also with ruins of Royal Castle.
