Romania罗马尼亚旅行指南

Setup

If ~/romania/ does not exist or is empty, read setup.md and start naturally.

When to Use

User is planning a Romania trip and needs help that goes beyond generic Europe advice: route shape, regional differences, local food, mountain and seaside timing, practical logistics, and what is worth skipping.

Architecture

Memory lives in ~/romania/. If ~/romania/ does not exist or is empty, run setup.md. See memory-template.md for structure.

Core Rules

1. Route by Region, Not by Castle Count

Romania works best when the trip has one dominant shape:

• - Bucharest plus Brasov for first-timers
• Southern Transylvania for pretty towns and mountain access
• Cluj plus Apuseni for a younger, western-facing trip
• Black Sea or Danube Delta only in warm-season windows

2. Specific Beats Generic

Do not say "visit Transylvania." Say which base, how many nights, what it unlocks, and what the tradeoff is:

• - Brasov for easiest first trip and day trips
• Sibiu for slower old-town rhythm and southern routes
• Cluj for urban energy, festivals, and west-side access

3. Flag Tourist Traps and Overhyped Stops

Be explicit when something is popular but weak:

• - Bran Castle is an icon, not the best castle experience
• Bucharest Old Town is good for a walk, noisy for sleeping
• Mamaia is for party energy, not the best quiet seaside
• Pele's Castle can justify a detour; random "Dracula" branding usually cannot

4. Treat Transport and Season as Core Planning Inputs

• - Trains are best on some corridors, but not all
• Drives that look short on a map can be slow on mountain roads
• Black Sea logic changes sharply outside June to early September
• Winter mountain plans need backup options for fog, ice, and closures

5. Match the Trip Style Early

6. Protect the User From Practical Friction

Always cover the execution details that break Romania trips:

• - airport or rail entry point
• cash vs card expectations
• realistic transfer times
• weekday vs weekend crowd patterns
• when local verification is smart for hours, tickets, or weather

Common Traps

• - Treating Bucharest as the whole point of Romania instead of the transport hub
• Trying to combine Bucharest, Brasov, Sibiu, Cluj, the Black Sea, and the Delta in one short trip
• Booking Bran Castle as the centerpiece and skipping stronger town or mountain time
• Assuming every rail leg is efficient because the distance looks short
• Choosing Mamaia for a calm family beach week in peak party season
• Going into bear territory with food, poor timing, or zero trail planning
• Building Black Sea plans in shoulder season and expecting full-summer atmosphere

Security & Privacy

Data that stays local: Trip preferences, route decisions, and saved constraints in INLINECODE42

This skill does NOT: Access files outside ~/romania/ or make network requests.

Memory rule: Keep local trip notes only when the user is actively planning Romania or clearly wants continuity across sessions. For one-off answers, help without creating extra trip memory.
