Sibiu & Marginimea Sibiului (1 day, from Cluj)

Known since the old times as a shepherd area, Marginimea Sibiului now stands as a very distinct ethnographic microregion. Visit two of the total of 18 villages comprised and see it's powerful dual character: Orthodox traditions and Saxon heritage. In Sibiel you will have the chance to visit a unique icon painted on glass museum. In Cristian, on the other hand, you will enter the gates of one of the no less than 200 fortified churches, still proudly telling the story of the now almost disappeared Saxon community.
Walk the three main medieval squares of the city of Sibiu. Admire the local colourful architecture and find out why ''houses have eyes'' in this beautiful city. Find out about the the Governor of Transylvania, Samuel von Brukenthal and his connection to the city. Admire the mysterious Carpathian mountains from one of the tallest towers in Transylvania.
