Tourists who wish to visit such places have multiple recreation possibilities, getting into direct contact with a diversified cultural offer; they may interactively participate in cultural events and they may spend unforgettable moments in chalets, boarding houses and in the houses of the inhabitants.
Crossroads
Vama Buzaului used to be the official customs between Transylvania and Tara Romaneasca and it used to offer people places for spending the night, eating and other services against a fee. In the beginning accommodation was provided for rest to tired travellers. The accommodation destinations used to be in hostels or in households with several rooms. In time, accommodation in people?s houses became more and more important and these days they are also used for spending spare time. A large part of the people in the cities prefer to spend their vacations in the rural areas, many of them choosing Vama Buzaului as a touristic destination.
Zero pollution
"The fact that our village is at the bottom of Ciucas Mountains (with the famous Tigai and many Sphinxes), that the access road is in a good condition and that in this area there is no intense traffic, allows us to develop in this area a viable, prosperous and lasting tourism, especially since here the pollution is zero. Tourists may go for one-day trips, they may take marked mountain tracks, they may participate in sheepfold activities, they may see how fresh cheese is being prepared or other food products specific to our area. The project in Vama Buzaului also called the "Model in the Carpathians" and the Dutch partners contribute to the preservation of people?s life and maintaining a clean environment" declared Tiberiu Nicolae Chirilaa, the Mayor of Vama Buzaului.
