Expedia has reported a 55 per cent increase in searches for hotels in Bucharest, Romania, after the release of the Netflix show, Wednesday. Euronews has reported a great increase in interest towards Romanian attractions which were featured on the series, leading to a rise of tourism in the country, as stated on SchengenVisaInfo.com.
Buftea Studios in Romania
People who are fans of Wednesday can experience where the series was filmed by visiting the Buftea studios in Romania near Bucharest. The ghost town of Jericho and Nevermore Academy were both set up at these studios. According to the INS, the total number of visitors to Romania increased by 21.8% in 2022 to reach 11.3 million, a statistic that was released by the statistical office.
According to INS, visitors to Romania spent a total of 24.3 million nights in the country last year, which was an increase of 17.8 percent from the previous year. Furthermore, an estimated 1.5 million foreign tourists visited Romania during 2022, a rise of 88.1 percent compared to 2021.
Romania Tourism
Tourism in Romania was greatly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, with Statista data showing that the number of arrivals in tourist accommodations in 2020 dropping to 6.34 million from the record high in 2019 of 13.37 million. It is possible that the Netflix TV series will help increase these numbers by boosting tourism in the country.
The number of arrivals in tourist accommodation in Romania has risen considerable since 2015, with 9.28 million people making their way there in 2021 and 11.3 million in 2022. This marks nearly an annual growth of one million each year.
Agrotourism in Romania
Agrotourism has become increasingly popular in Romania over the past few years, with it being the most widespread type of accommodation offered.
Agrotourism has been increasing in popularity, with around 50,000 beds offered by agrotourism establishments in 2019. Although this number is slightly lower than the number of beds offered by hotels, which totaled 199,922, it still provides an opportunity for visitors to enjoy activities such as direct-to-consumer sales, agricultural education, hospitality, recreation and entertainment on farms or ranches.
The Carpathian Mountains of Romania are renowned for their stunning scenery, abundant wildlife, plentiful parks and ancient castles. Among the most renowned landmarks in Romania are the majestic Peles Castle and the famous Bran Castle, better known as Dracula’s Castle, located in Transylvania.
On the whole, mountain resorts comprise the majority of the tourist accommodation facilities in Romania, with over 2,000 located in the mountains, with far fewer in hotels and seaside resorts.
