The old fortress of Bucharest was one of the residences for Vlad the Impaler. He ruled off and on from 1448-1477 and was best known for maintaining order with an iron fist. His blood thirsty ways have left him with quite the reputation however our guide today said there was little need for enforcement once he got everyone's attention. He effectively got rid of the criminals of the day and lawlessness was a thing of the past! There isn't much left of the fortress but those ruins are really quite old! Check them out here and keep an eye out for more information about Vlad!
