Sibiu – Discover The City With Eyes, Sibiu, Romania

Located in the middle of the Transylvania region in Romania, Sibiu is a medieval city that has so much to offer on a cultural level. Sibiu has a large German population, which is why the city also has a second German name – Hermannstadt. Although it has been a popular destination for a long time now, it really rose to fame after it held the title of European Cultural Capital in 2007, along with Luxembourg, another city that I’m in love with. Years have passed and Sibiu not only kept its reputation as a cultural hub but even consolidated it by being the city host of several national or international fashion, food, sport or art festivals. No matter how the city will lure you to wander on its cobbled streets, you will soon discover all the other things that are great about it – and that’s mainly its history, food, and peculiar architecture – the houses with eyes on the roof.

Sibiu is a perfect weekend destination, because in 2-3 days you can see the major attractions without being too rushed. Because it is one of most important cities in Romania, visitors have multiple ways to reach it: by car, bus, train. You can even fly easily to Sibiu, because it has its own airport, just 3km outside the city. ...... (follow the instructions below for accessing the rest of this article).
