The Dacian capital Rome feared — mountain fortress ruins usually visited by more deer than tourists

The capital of ancient Dacia — King Decebal's mountain fortress where the Romans finally conquered in AD 106. Remote ruins in the Orăștie Mountains: circular stone temples, fortification walls, and the foundations of a civilization Rome feared. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, usually empty.
