SIBIU Romania 🇷🇴 - Must Visit! (Beautiful Town in Transylvania) 2022

Must Visit Towns in Romania - Exploring Sibiu (Transylvania)! Sibiu, known as the city with eyes, we absolutely loved our time exploring this beautiful town in Romania. From the Bridge of Lies, the Piata Mare ( large square), and the wonderful architecture, there is much to enjoy while wandering the streets within the old town. We also explored beyond the main tourist areas and found Sibiu's many beautiful churches and cathedrals. The Holy Trinity Cathedral (Orthodox church) is an absolute must-see and just a short walk from the town square. We climbed the Council Tower where we got the most amazing view of Piata Mica (small square), Piata Mare (large square), and throughout Sibiu and the countryside beyond.
#Sibiu #Romania #transylvania
Exploring Sibiu in the summer months we were fortunate to be there during some wonderful events. We took in the Red Bull Romaniacs race, rock concerts, and an amazing Orchestra in Piata Mare square. And, of course, you can't finish a day in Sibiu without taking in authentic local Romanian cuisine and local craft beer. Thank you so much for joining us on this journey!
Cheers!!!

    There are many places in Romania to see, the romanian government doesn't do such a good job in promoting the country, KZreadrs who travel the world like Brian and Carrie have done far more promotion to Romania than the government. As for towns and cities that worth seeing are many Sibiu - overall a pretty city Sighisoara - lots of colorful buildings Oradea - one of the most restored cities in Romania Brasov - there are so many things to do here from wondering the old town to hiking to the near by mountain Postavarul Massif Bucharest - a mix of old and new, has one of the biggest mall in Eastern Europe with a build in mountain façade, not mentioning the largest building in Europe Alba Iulia - largest fortress in Romania, on foot to visit the whole thing it would take at least 2 hours Hunedoara - this town has The Corvin Castle it is one of Europe's best kept medieval castles, oh yeah there are a lot of castles and fortress around Romania Timisoara, Cluj-Napoca, Iasi, Targu Mures, Baia Mare, Arad, all good looking cities and the list could go on and on, so many localities that has something to offer

    I was blown away by Sibiu. I was with a professional group that was doing some stuff on the outskirts of town, and I can't believe stopping into the historic center wasn't on the agenda. We broke off from the group and were able to run around the core for 30 mins or so and WOW. I'm dying to go back. If Sibiu was in Western Europe, it would be buried in tourism (not that it doesn't have tourists).

Not to mention the disastrous infrastructure ☹️ but, indeed, Romania IS a hidden gem. Hope you'll get to see Oradea as well (my favorite one in Romania, I'm from Bucharest). I've also been living in Poland for some years, and Budapest for a year now - Poland and Hungary really are true gems worthy of exploring as well ❤️❤️❤️ And not just Budapest and Kraków. Looking forward for your next videos on your Romanian galore trip. Take care both of you ❤️

    As a Midwesterner who lived in Sibiu for 2 years, I can totally agree that this is a "must visit" city. I taught at the local university through the U.S. State Department's Fulbright Program. I will add, though, that there is so much more to see in Sibiu beyond the center city area. Some of the outlying small towns are also great. I did enjoy my visits to other Romanian cities, but--maybe because it was "home"--Sibiu was my favorite.

    You misunderstood: the 150 lei were for a ticket that gives you access to all the museum in town that fall under the Brukenthal Museum administration, eight museums in total. The price just for this museum you wanted to visit is 39 lei. I am sure that you can find much more expensive museums across Europe. Yes, the filming tax is quite high and stupid (I don't why they enforce that) but unfortunately it is found in many museum here.

    La comida la bebidas los postres son excelentes en Rumanía, diría que es la más diversa y elaborada de toda Europa la que más variedad tiene. Excluyendo el marisco, lo tiene TODO. La cervezas son muchas y exelente calidades, el tiempo es fabuloso em verano.

    "Mamaia - luxury resort" - only when it comes to prices, otherwise there's nothing luxurious about it. As a Romanian I wouldn't recommend our sea side to anyone at the moment, there's a lot of work to be done there until it becomes worth visiting.

    Romania was created by uniting 3 states who were speaking the same language. Transylvania is very pretty, with many castles and medieval towns, it looks like central Europe. I would recommend to take the plane directly to Sibiu, Cluj, Brasov etc for a first trip. Moldova and Wallachia, including Bucharest, are balkanic and have fewer castles, they are cool for a second trip to Romania.

    Not really, Transylvania/Siebenbürgen was German since the 12th century. With the beginning of the 18th century the first Romanians arrived. Till the deportation of most of the Germans (Siebenbürgen Sachsen) it was a heavy influenced German city till 1945

    Great video, thanks! Entry to that museum you skipped, was expensive indeed … wherever I see the eu (intentionally without capitals) flag, I usually run fast and far, because it became some sort of symbol of expensiveness. Sibiu is a nice city, I’ve been there a few times some years ago … it is incredible how such a nice city can be the native place of such a clown president (he was born there). I am so glad you had a warm weather, just as you like it most. If you are the ones who bring nice weather, come again … if not, come again anyway, you will always be welcome in Romania. Looking forward to your next video. Take care, stay safe and have a wonderful time. Cheers …

    The city is called Nagyszeben in Hungarian. It was formed in the 12th century. It was part of Transylvania (Erdély) until 1920, when the treaty of Trianon divided Hungary and the city like other part of Hungary became the part of Rumania. During the Austro-Hungarian Empire the city of Nagyszeben, Sibiu had German, Hungarian and Rumanian population.

    On today's territory of the city of Sibiu and all the other settlements around Sibiu, there were Dacian settlements. The Dacians were the ancestors of today's Romanians. A real proof is the Dacian Citadel from Tilișca, together with the related settlement, is located on the Cățănaș hill and was discovered in 1957. The oldest habitation of the Cățănaș hill was archaeologically documented in the first Iron Age, the Hallstatt civilization, the phases A, B and C, in the XII-VII centuries BC. BC Then the first fortification system was erected, consisting of the outer wall of the fortress. After an interruption of several centuries, the fortress will be inhabited again by the Dacians, starting from the 3rd century BC. From the 1st century BC, the fortified defense system inherited from the Hallstatt fortress was rebuilt and expanded, by strengthening and raising the border of the upper plateau. Another "pincer" entrance was arranged on the northwest side. The residential tower was also built and dozens of terraces were laid out, mainly for defense, but also for living. The fortress thus becomes a fortified center of the Dacian state, with remarkable craft activity. In the middle of 12th century, our era, the Saxons and Szeklers appeared on the territory of present-day Transylvania. Transylvania was always, before Christ, Dacian territory. Dacian ruins and settlements bear witness, some discovered, on the ruins of the old Dacian fortresses are now covered by the current fortresses and fortifications made by the Saxons.

    Transylvania was and is Romanian territory. The Hungarians, who were part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, took this territory and killed many of the Romanians who were always in the majority, changed their names to Hungarian names, killed their families, fields were taken and their houses set on fire. So, who is older in this territory of Transylvania???? You, the Hungarians, who came to Transylvania in the 12th century, or the Romanians, the majority of the population, who were here before, from the time of the Dacians, before Christ????
