The small square in Sibiu has parking and lots of cafes to sit at, while the larger main square was the merchant centre of this pretty little medieval town, here you will find the Council Tower and Sibiu Cathedral which was under renovation when I visited.
Other points of interest include the bridge of lies or liars bridge which is popular with lovers since it is said to vibrate if they tell a lie to each other, and meanwhile the windows in the rooftops of nearby buildings look like eyes watching you, a feature to be found in many of the buildings in this area of Romania.
Sibiu, medieval city in Transylvania | Places to visit
Why Sibiu? There are more than a dozen reasons in its favor.
Despite retaining that medieval touch, Sibiu is a vibrantly colored – both pastels and bold colors combine for a typical Transylvanian city.
It is one of the major cultural centers in Romania and was designated in 2007 as the European Capital of Culture, so once you come here you have plenty of cultural sites to visit.
There is the Gong Theatre, the Brukenthal National Museum, ASTRA National Museum Complex, the Steam Locomotives Museum, and several interesting parks including the Sub Arini Park, the Lira Park, Strand Park, and the Corneliu Coposu Park.
Do not miss a walk in the two town squares (Large and Small), and most importantly, ladies, test the faith of your beloved while standing beneath the Liars’ Bridge – without a doubt one of the most popular monuments in Sibiu.
The city is also known for the great tourism in the region, because alongside culture it also showcases numerous festivals and it’s even great for trekking, making it a complete experience for those that want to visit Romania and enjoy it in all of its glory.
Discover some of the most important medieval cities of Transylvania on a 3-day tour: Sibiu, Brasov, Sighisoara and more!
Sibiu - Romania // One of the most beautiful European Capital of Culture ???
Sibiu is a city in Transylvania, Romania, with a population of 147,245.Located some 215 km (134 mi) north-west of Bucharest, the city straddles the Cibin River, a tributary of the river Olt. Now the capital of Sibiu County, between 1692 and 1791 and 1849–65 Sibiu was the capital of the Principality of Transylvania.
Sibiu is one of the most important cultural centres of Romania and was designated the European Capital of Culture for the year 2007, along with the city of Luxembourg. Formerly the centre of the Transylvanian Saxons, the old city of Sibiu was ranked as Europe's 8th-most idyllic place to live by Forbes in 2008.
The city administers the Păltiniș ski resort.
The first official record referring to the Sibiu area comes from 1191, when Pope Celestine III confirmed the existence of the free prepositure of the German settlers in Transylvania, the prepositure having its headquarters in Sibiu, named Cibinium at that time.[5]
In the 14th century, it was already an important trade centre. In 1376, the craftsmen were divided in 19 guilds. Sibiu became the most important ethnic German city among the seven cities that gave Transylvania its German name Siebenbürgen (literally seven citadels).[6][7] It was home to the Universitas Saxorum (Community of the Saxons), a network of pedagogues, ministers, intellectuals, city officials, and councilmen of the German community forging an ordered legal corpus and political system in Transylvania since the 1400s.[8][9] During the 18th and 19th centuries, the city became the second- and later the first-most important centre of Transylvanian Romanian ethnics. The first Romanian-owned bank had its headquarters here (The Albina Bank), as did the ASTRA (Transylvanian Association for Romanian Literature and Romanian's People Culture). After the Romanian Orthodox Church was granted status in the Habsburg Empire from the 1860s onwards, Sibiu became the Metropolitan seat, and the city is still regarded as the third-most important centre of the Romanian Orthodox Church. Between the Hungarian Revolution of 1848 and 1867 (the year of the Ausgleich), Sibiu was the meeting-place of the Transylvanian Diet, which had taken its most representative form after the Empire agreed to extend voting rights in the region.

[한국어 정보]
부쿠레슈티를 떠나 북쪽으로 향하면 다치아와 로마의 격전지였던 트란실바니아 지역에 도착한다. 시비우도 한때 로마제국의 일부였지만 지금의 모습을 완성한 건 12세기 독일에서 온 이주민들이다. 볼거리가 많은 중세 도시 시비우는 보는 눈이 많은 곳이기도 하다. 어딜 가든 누가 쳐다보는 느낌이 드는 건 바로 지붕에 난 창문들 때문. 이런 눈들이 한두 개가 아니다. “독일어로 ‘시비우의 눈’이라고 불러요. 루마니아어로도 똑같이 부르고요. 독일계 이주민들이 만든 전형적인 지붕 양식이죠. 이 도시를 부를 때도 루마니아어로는 ‘시비우’라고 하지만 독일어로는 ‘헤르만슈타트’라고 해요. 아마 저기서 보셨을 거예요.”

Leaving Bucharest and heading north, arrive in the Transylvanian region, which was the battleground of Dacia and Rome. Sibiu was once part of the Roman Empire, but it is the 12th century German emigrants who have completed their present form. Sibiu, a medieval city with many attractions, is also a place with a lot of snow. It is the windows on the roof that make me feel like I look at wherever I go. These eyes are not one or two. In German it is called 'Sibiu's Eye'. I call it the same in Romanian. It's a typical roof form made by German immigrants. When I call this city, it is called Sibiu in Romanian, but it is called Hermannstadt in German. Probably you would have seen from there.
[Romania: Google Translator]
Plecând de la București și îndreptându-se spre nord, ajungeți în regiunea transilvană, care era locul de luptă al Daciei și al Romei. Sibiul a fost odată parte a Imperiului Roman, dar emigranții germani din secolul al XII-lea au completat forma actuală. Sibiu, un oraș medieval cu multe atracții, este, de asemenea, un loc cu mult zăpadă. Sunt ferestrele de pe acoperiș care mă fac să simt că mă uit oriunde mă duc. Acești ochi nu sunt unul sau doi. În limba germană se numește ochiul lui Sibiu . Eu îl numesc în limba română. Este o formă tipică de acoperiș realizată de imigranți germani. Când numesc acest oraș, se numește Sibiu în limba română, dar se numește Hermannstadt în limba germană. Probabil ați fi văzut de acolo.

Sibiu, Romania - The cultural capital city of Europe
Sibiu, one of the most beautiful places I have been so far in Romania. The old town is one of Romania's hidden gems. Rich in color, architecture and a pleasure to get lost in.
Before going into my next location, Sighisoara, I had a few more hours to spare in Sibiu, so I decided to roam around a little bit more in the old town.
I woke up early on Sunday morning and walked towards the town, it's really chill outside and quite. Perfect time to take some nice architecture photos without tourists and locals in in the way.
I have discovered some beautiful places, little colorful narrow alleys which are perfect spots for photography. While admiring these places I realize what a beautiful country is Romania. I can't wait to discover more in the year to come.
The silence was broken by a warm big bang bell sound from the cathedrals around the old town. People are slowly showing up, greeting each-other on the streets and are gathering in their church congregations.
I stop at the Christmas market once more to grab something to eat and following it up with a good Starbucks coffee, although I am not a Starbucks fan...it was perfect for to boost my energy in continuing my journey.
Sibiu, it was a pleasing and satisfying place to visit, totally recommend it.
I am taking the train to Sighisoara, the city I have been waiting to see for such a long time. I am extremely excited.

HEYRomania City of Sibiu English
This is the English version of the romanian presentation for the city of Sibiu 2017. Enjoy it !
The Christmas Market in Sibiu, Romania
Sibiu, voted the European Cultural City in 2007. It's a beautiful city in the heart of Romania. 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. In the upper town, Brukenthal Palace now houses the Brukenthal National Museum, with European paintings. The nearby Evangelical Cathedral has gravestones in its walls.
I am really exited about exploring Sibiu in specially now during the Christmas Holiday.
It was a bit of a journey for me, I left around 9am from Zalau to Cluj and from Cluj another 5 hours till Sibiu by coach.
I have arrived somewhere in the afternoon, just in time to catch some daylight and also to enjoy the Christmas lights.
Beautiful city, you dont need a tour guide or a path to walk, because everywhere you look it looks amazing. Brilliant old architecture, well preserved building, it feels like going back in time.
Every click you take with your camera it will turn out to be a stunning photo.
Just like in any Christmas Market the presence of good food is there, lively atmosphere and cool light-shows.
After spending a couple of hours in the city centre enjoying the lights, food and the old town, I walk to my Airbnb drink a good coffe and well...I am getting old, I did manage to fall asleep. By the time I walk back to the city, the market is slowly closing down, I am really disappointed in myself but, lucky enough I have time the next day till 12pm to explore a bit more the city in daylight so I am happy with that.
A destination where I will surely come back again, Sibiu is my favorite city so far.
As per the Christmas Market it is in the top if not the best Christmas Market I have seen so far.
Tomorrow I will be heading towards Sighisoara, but before that I will explore the city a little bit more, so make sure to SUBSCRIBE cause the details of the stunning old town in Sibiu is yet to come.
Thank you for watching.
