An incursion in history:
We started our adventure in Piata Sfatului, the old city center, where i was immediatly impressed by the gothic arhitecture and renascentist of the nicely coloured buildings. We visited the black church (biserica neagra), a monumental gothic masterpiece, where i could admire the beautiful drawn windows. We then climbed the White Tower (turnul alb), were i could watch the beautiful city and the carpathian mountains panorama.
Unique experiences:
We explored Sforii street, one of the most narrow street in europe, where i could feel the real mediavel atmosphere. We visited the first romanian school ( Prima Scoala romaneasca), where i could step on the marks of romanian students from the XVI century. I took a walk on Tampa, the mountain who’s encircling the city enjoying the beautiful views.
Traditions and delicacies:
We tasted traditional romanian dishes at the restaurants from old city center, where i could taste sarmale, ciorba de burta and fluffy papanasi.
We discovered souvenirs shops where i bought unique gifts for the loved ones.. We participated at a romanian folklor music festival where i was fascinated by the traditional dances music.
