Sibiu.

We spent a few hours in the lovely city of Sibiu. Russell and I have been here twice before but never had the chance to spend time in the city centre. Today we fixed that.

We loved Sibiu when we visited 4 years ago and we were reminded why today.
It’s known for Germanic architecture in its old town, the legacy of 12th-century Saxon settlers. Around the city are the remains of medieval walls and towers, including the 13th-century Council Tower. We visited the famous Bridge of Lies. There are many legends around why it is called that. (Check Wikipedia). We went inside 2 very differently decorated churches. The less decorated one was more to my taste but you couldn't help but marvel at the paintings in the very ornate church. (Video attached) We saw the remaining parts of the fortified walls and generally enjoyed walking around the city. The cool wet weather was not a problem, in fact the 16C temperature was refreshing. We thoroughly enjoyed Sibiu.Baca lagi
