Reviews

[Ana-Maria Bujor · Rating 4 out of 5]

The book itself is very pretty, with great paper quality and plenty of beautiful photos. It does a great job at introducing one to the country and presenting the basics of its history and culture, as well as the main regions.
There are tips as well, but do not expect Lonely-Planet level of detail and endless lists of restaurants and hotels. But as an introduction, it's pretty great and makes you want to pack up faster and go.
