Castelul Cantacuzino

Castelul Cantacuzino a fost cladit in anul 1911 in parcul al carui proprietar a fost Printul Gheorghe Grigore Cantacuzino zis “Nababu” din cauza averii sale impresionante. Se spunea ca ar fi putut pava intreaga curte aferenta castelului cu monedele sale de aur. Castelul este inconjurat de cascade, grote si fantani arteziene si este in topul primelor castele din Romaniadin punct de vedere architectural. Castelul a functionat ca sediu al Sanatoriului Ministerului de Interne, apoi in anul 2008 a fost cumparat de catre un grup de investitori si repus in circuitul turistic.

Another monument from Busteni,this time made by Mother Nature,is the ,,Urlatoarea'' watefall.Located on the foothills of the Bucegi Mountains,it is one of the most beautiful watterfalls in Romania. Its name,witch in english translates ,,The Howler'',comes from  the sound the watter makes ,breaking on the rocks below it.

It is visited,anually,by more than 30.000 people,who come here in search of a refreshing,stress reliefing hike.
