| Abstract: | In September 2009 the cast and crew of the British television show Top
Gear were seen filming along the Transfăgărăşan road [1]. The segment appeared
in first episode of Series 14 which first aired November 15, 2009 [1]. Host Jeremy
Clarkson claimed he made a mistake in naming the Stelvio Pass as the best road in
the world and instead Transfăgărăşan should have this title [1]. Perhaps this is not
true, but Transfăgărăşan is certainly the most spectacular road in Romania. The
paper presents the main technical elements of this road, and some historical
landmarks. |
