Beautiful Sibiu

We spent the day at the open-air ASTRA Museum of Folkloric Traditional Civilization. We saw traditional Romanian architecture like wooden churches, and many styles of roofing including thatched and various wooden shingles and ceramic tiles. The boys participated in basket weaving. We saw masks used in a funeral right to chase evil away and to purify through singing, movement, and fire. There were spaces dedicated to candle, making, weaving, pottery, farming, hydropower generation, and so much more.

We then rode our bikes into town. We saw beautiful old buildings and had a most delicious meal! We then toured the town in the evening and there were so many people out in the squares enjoying a respite from the heat of the day.Baca lagi
