There is another royal castle just a little further up the hill. Built between 1899 and 1903 for Carol I heirs Ferdinand and Marie, it's quite a different story. I made the tour, but I did not cough up the photo fee this time (many sites in Romania charge extra for photo and even more for video). I kind of regret that, because Pelişor, mainly adhering to the Art Noveau style, is much more restrained and tasteful. With one exception: there is one room where the walls are all gold.
