Sinaia is a small paradise there at the foot of the Bucegi Mountains, due to the perfect harmony between the wild nature of the forests and the architectural elegance, it has earned the name of the "Pearl of the Carpathians."The high mountains, which keep the Dacian secrets and the endless forests of the Prahova Valley, where the medieval bandits hid, created the place of which A King fell in love. From this love in "The Cradle of His Dynasty" was born and grew the beautiful "Little Versailles".
