....Sinaia takes its name from a 17th century monastery, the first building in the area. Over time, several other buildings of historical and cultural significance were added, most notably Peles Castle, a monumental edifice in the German Renaissance style, built by King Carol I as a summer residence, and now converted into a museum. Tourists can spend a day in the royal surroundings or choose a visit in nearby Pelisor Castle, now also a museum, to take a stroll in its impressive art gallery. Options for evening entertainment include concerts and shows in the Sinaia Casino, which also hosts many modern art and photo exhibits, as well as conferences, congresses and symposia. ...............................................................................................................................
