The land where yesterday meets tomorrow

A land where centuries-old tradition meets the technologically savvy, where a millennium of history provides the backdrop to one of the most rapidly changing regions on the eastern edge of the European Union.

Yet to the world beyond, to the international reader, Transylvania remains remote and unknown, a fairytale land of castles and horrors from a Bram Stoker novel.

TransylvaniaNOW bridges this gap and brings it all home. As a portal delivering a selection of daily news, features and blogs — in English — it raises the profile and awareness of this great region, telling the story of its long history, rich culture, and enchanting natural beauty juxtaposed to the latest news and some of the hard-hitting issues of the day.

TransylvaniaNOW tells today's story of a great region to the world beyond, the story of a land where yesterday meets tomorrow.
