In fact around this shop, on the same side of the road you may find other two grocery shops and a pharmacy.
On the other side of the road, just across the church there is Valyana grocery store as well we go often as well.

Parks & Nature
Very nice park, especially in autumn when there is even a nice festival inside it. Inside the park there is a nice cake shop where you can serve a good cake and a fruit juice.
The park itself is very beautiful and has some iconic spots, like the Casino or some iconic hotels - one of them a replica of the first hotels in the area, out of wood.
Also nearby our place, 500 m away, we have a nice, relaxing park, suitable to kids as they have some entertainment for them as well - you can find it on Google Maps.

Very beautiful natural park where you can find extraordinary views, unique at least in our country. Lots of paths across it for all people, from kids to elderly people, Bucegi mountains offer you a good 'battery' recharge through its forests, beautiful sceneries and peaks.

Very nice views from this cable car towards one of the hardest routes up to Bucegi over 2000 m peaks. Much nicer than the one in SInaia. Also interesting rock formations are at the end of the trip - Babele and the Sphynx.

Food Scene
The only place I would recommend as a restaurant inside Poiana Tapului. Not sure about it as I did not get any recommendation, but you can check it on Google Maps reviews as well TripAdvisor if the case.
The view is nice, as well Vila Leonida is close which is a very nice villa.

I heard it is acceptable, budget eating from a couple of our guests. Just across, there is a parking along the main road DN1, so they should have customers I think, as of the fact that cars stop there. In case you had a good meal there, please let me know, as I am not sure about the place / did not get too much feedback and I don't think they have so many customers, hence not sure about the freshness of the food there.
