My first travel 😄

Memories of  February

Discovering Sibiu

In the end of this wonderful winter, full of surprise, new adventures and new events I finally took some of my free days to discover together with a special person, the city of Sibiu. One of the most beautiful city that I saw until now in Romania.

View of the city from the Council Tower

The travel was a little bit long because there is not a direct communication between Resita and Sibiu and we start our trip from Timisoara. We spent around 6 hours and half of traveling, but the train was almost comfortable. 

We arrive in Sibiu during the night and unfortunately we were tired for the travels to go and have a walk in the city.

We book a residence Casa Hermanni, really close to the center to be able to move our self in the best way possible in the city.  The apartment was really good and also the owner was always available with suggestion and to help us to have a wonderful experience in the city. 

City Wall

During our visit a lot of building capture our attention and also them style really unique, different from other city in Romania, quite medieval in some part of the city.

With few knowledge about the city and it's history we start to travel around and take some random pictures.With a little bit of luck we found a police man that was interested to meet tourist especially in this time of the year. We had a good conversation and after he suggest us to go and visit the city from another point of view, a place a little bit upper from our potion, he suggest us to go and visit the Council Tower. 

Council Tower of Sibiu

To go upstairs we pay a ticket of 2 Lei per person, not expensive at all for the have a magic view. The view is amazing, we had really a great time and when we finish our journey we ask more information about other place to visit, museum, historical place and other tower is possible. The tourist guide suggest us to go also in the tower of the the big Church. We were surprise that was possible to climb it and the experience sound interesting, so we accept this feedback  and we went to the big church.

In my opinion the most wonderful view was from the the council tower but also from the Church's Tower is it possible to see all the city and also more because is in a position more higher that the previous one.

We were so focus to visit the city that after we choose also to try some original dishes from the region, because we are in Transylvania. We try also some restaurants from the city. The first one "Crama Sibiul Vechi"  following the feedback of Google Maps that lead us in this good place where the food was really good and also the place really typical.  The second one that I can suggest you is a restaurant in the "Piata Mic" little square called Lila's Restaurant. 

In the city is possible to go and eat in different place and taste a lot of original products based on traditional dishes of the Transylvania. I suggest to all the travelers to do not go in the first fast food that you find but to be more patience and try to find some traditional place.

I really enjoy my travel and I hope to be back in Sibiu to visit the city also during the summer, and to all the traversal I hope that you will enjoy the experience as I did.
