Romania has emerged as an appealing destination for tourists, featuring a unique mix of culture, history, and natural beauty. With around 6.8 million foreign visitors annually, it ranks prominently in regional tourism, drawing attention for its medieval towns, gothic castles, and the stunning Carpathian Mountains. This makes it a potentially interesting option for a segment of Pakistan's 236 million population.
Romania is generally considered a safe destination for tourists, including those from Pakistan. It ranks 19th out of 40 European countries in terms of safety while walking alone at night. According to the Global Peace Index, Romania is ranked 36th out of 160 countries, significantly safer than Pakistan, which ranks 138th. In terms of crime statistics, Romania has a murder rate of 1.3 per 100,000 people, compared to Pakistan's 4.0. Additionally, the Global Organized Crime Index indicates that Romania has lower scores in various crime categories compared to Pakistan, suggesting a more favorable security environment. Overall, while no destination is without risk, Romania offers a relatively safe experience for tourists.
