Romania means many things to the author, including beautiful natural landscapes, a rich history seen in its outstanding castles and palaces, and famous people such as painters, poets, composers, and inventors. It also means the culture and traditions of the country, such as traditional clothing, dances, ceramics, and cemeteries. Most importantly, Romania means home. The document goes on to describe the city of Targoviste, the old capital of Wallachia known for its royal court and church from the 14th-17th centuries, as well as its current cultural attractions as a center for museums and theaters.
