Awesome video

Thanks for watching.  I couldn't catch appropriate light, so had to improve it in post editing as it could be possible. Furthermore it took me lots of time to do frontal observation the way it would have satisfactory view, so there wasn't enough battery life to shoot a couple more interesting angles. So I hope to get there again and complete the work.
Really glad that you like this video.

Thank you for watching! Yes, castles and fortresses are awesome. Unfortunately, years and years of irresponsible treating left indelible footprints on our heritage. And we must share their beauty for our community to attract attention  to that problem.

You're welcome

Amazing place . give me a broad sword "stick" and my youth back . ill play until i was late for supper

Nice video, a little misleading though, it ends with the words "Ukrainian heritage". It's Cetatea Albă, even the name is Romanian. It means The White City (fortified city, to be exact). Alexander the Good and Stephan the Great were both moldavians.
Other than that, I enjoyed it.

Thank you for your kind words! I think, many of us grew up with Ivanhoe, King Arthur and Robin Hood. And even now I am reading this.
So I exactly know what do you feel

Thank you for positive responce! I understand your point of view and have to add some details. The city was established by ancient Greek almost 2600 years ago. Through the history it was the part of Rome Empire, Byzantine Empire (who built the first fortress there - Asprokastro, White Castle), Kievan Rus, Bulgarian Empire, Moldavia (who build new fortress Cetatea Albă), Tatar Golden Orda, Ottoman Empire (who rebuild fortress and named it Akkerman), Russian Empire. So it is actually world wide heritage. But as Ukraine own it now I decided to mark it as Ukrainian heritage without any political reason and with only one purpose: Ukrainian nation has to save this treasure for all people in the world. You are most welcome to visit the place, let me know if you are going to. We can meet there and discuss all this complicated question with some wine and a couple of plăcintă (my wife does it well).

Thanks for kind words, my friend. Glad that you like it!

Wow, can you even imagine of the labor and planning back then. Wonder if they used prisoners to build it ?

Indeed. I think it mostly was prisoners of war. There was many territory's conflict in this area so unfortunately there always were planty of POW.

Some new shots from this location

Beautifully filmed Michael. And great selection of music too. Suited the location to the core. Where do you get your music from? No copyright issues when uploaded to YouTube?

Thank you and thanks for watching! It was my first attempt to shoot this fortress and in the future I want to reshoot it with more proper light condition. It is very convenient to get FREE music on Youtube Audio Library
https://www.youtube.com/audiolibrary/music
You can find there free sound effects too

They write about necessity (or not) to point on copyright in description to each track, so you haven't any issues with it.

Great place. But why castle which is located in Ukraine has moldavian name?
