Brasov is of course known for the beautiful picturesque medieval old town, the black church and the citadel but there is a lot more to see. Wander around and get lost in the city to discover houses from centuries ago to huge soviet buildings to really modern architecture. The thing is that only seeing the Old Town doesn’t do this beautiful city justice. Climb up on Tampa, have an overview of the city near the Brasov sign and feel the mountain air. Brasov, being in the middle of Romania, is also a brilliant check-point to start travels from so it is recommended to discover what’s outside the city borders. Visit the nearby Bran village or Sibiu with beautiful castles; take on a longer trip – the rain connection is excellent. After visiting museums and galleries, try to have some outdoor fun and go for a hike in the mountains, it will be rewarding.
