Romania Road Trip: Brasov Transylvania
Travel video of Transylvania Romania. In this video from my Romania Road Trip travel vlog series we are driving from Sibiu to Brasov, then exploring the sights of Brasov including: St Catherine's Gate, the oldest gate in Brasov old city wall; the Black Church in Brasov Council Square; and String Street one of the narrowest streets in Europe.
The Black Church got it's name after it was badly burned leaving the outside black and charred, however thanks to a cleanup, but confusingly, it is no longer a black church.
String street was created to link one side of Brasov city to the other for firefighters.
