EDITORS COMMENTS
11th Century Coltesti Castle Ruins Amidst the Autumnal Trascau Mountains of Transylvania, Romania Nestled in the heart of Transylvania, Alba County, Romania, lies the enchanting ruins of Coltesti Castle. Dating back to the 11th century, this architectural marvel stands as a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of this fascinating region. Perched atop a hill, the castle offers breathtaking views of the surrounding Territorial Trascau Mountains, their verdant slopes bathed in the golden hues of autumn. The castle's crumbling walls, weathered by time and the elements, tell tales of the past, whispering stories of the brave warriors who once defended the land and the noble families who called it home. The castle's grandeur, though diminished, remains undeniable, with its imposing towers and intricate stonework. The rural countryside that surrounds Coltesti Castle is a feast for the senses. The crisp autumn air carries the scent of woodsmoke and damp earth, while the rustling leaves underfoot crunch beneath your feet. The tranquil beauty of the landscape is only broken by the distant sound of livestock grazing in the pastures and the gentle babble of nearby streams. As the sun begins to set, the sky above the castle transforms into a canvas of brilliant oranges, pinks, and purples, casting a warm glow over the ruins and the mountains beyond. The scene is a reminder of the passing of time and the enduring allure of Romania's Transylvanian region. This photograph, captured by the skilled lens of Emily Wilson and Danita Delimont, invites us to explore the history and natural beauty of Coltesti Castle and the Transylvanian landscape. It is a moment frozen in time, a glimpse into the past, and a reminder of the magic that lies hidden in the most unexpected places.
