Transfagarașan and the Fagaraș mountains- June 2010

Transfagarasan(DN7C) road constructed between 1970 and 1974 during the rule of Nicolae Ceausescu.
Ceausescu wanted a quick military access across the mountains if the Soviets will invade.
The road climbs to 2034m and connects between the two regions: Translivania and Wallachia (the cities Sibiu and Pitesti).
The road is certainly teasing nature by its amazing curves.
Parts of the road are blocks during the year because of the snow.
It's also the way to two famous and special lakes: Balea and Vidraru .
On June,2010 me and my family went to discover the beautiful landscapes of the Fagaras mountains and Transfagarasan road.

                              Fagaras mountains


                           A lot of small waterfalls along the road

                           Free cows are resting in "Heaven"..



Me and my daughter near pure water

                         Wild horses near the road

                                 Yes, it's your road too....
