Breb village in Maramures, Romania is known for preserving traditional ways of life. The village features small gravel roads and coquette wooden churches at its center instead of restaurants and concrete buildings. Residents speak loudly with warmth and are friendly, respectful community members who know how to work, rest, and celebrate in moderation. The village's charm has attracted Prince Charles and Duncan Ridgley, who bought and restored traditional homes, turning two into The Village Hotel. Breb is considered one of Romania's best preserved traditional villages.
