Fairy-tale Transylvania

Houses with “eyes” in their roofs, cobbled squares and the Carpathians on the horizon. From Sibiu — the Transfăgărășan road and medieval Saxon villages.

👀 What to see

• The Large Square and the Bridge of Lies
• The Transfăgărășan highway (in summer)
• The fortified church of Biertan

🍽 What to taste

• Sarmale and papanași
• Transylvanian pălincă

⚓ Quiet spot

The Saxon villages around — as if time has stood still.
