Sibiu Medieval Town - a must-see destination!
Sibiu is one of Romania's cultural and tourism landmarks, attracting tourists all over the world due to its wonderful medieval charm, excellent views of the surrounding landscapes, delicious local food, and stunning parkland!
A former European Capital of Culture in 2007, Sibiu has since focused on its vivid cultural life, also developing its touristic profile. Alongside its other valuable assets, traditions had an important role in shaping Sibiu as a viable touristic destination, food culture being one of the main attractions of the region. This is why the city was also designated European Region of Gastronomy in 2019.

After breakfast, the guide will pick-you up from the hotel and you will start discover Sibiu. The tour includes the most interesting sights and architectural buildings in the city.
The beautiful Old Town was mostly built in the late medieval period by the German merchants who were encouraged to settle in and around Sibiu. It’s in excellent condition, having escaped modern encroachments, and having been thoroughly renovated to be European Capital of Culture in 2007. Within Old Town, the Upper Town, containing most of the historic sights, is ranged around three squares: Piata Mare (the Great Square), dominated by the Jesuit Cathedral, Piata Mica (the Little Square) has most of the bars and cafés, and Piata Huet is an attractive Gothic conglomeration around the Lutheran Cathedral. The Lower Town is home to many charming buildings and cobbled squares.
Afternoon reserved to discover the favorite promenade of the city’s inhabitants, Dumbrava Sibiului, a natural park who includes “ASTRA" Museum of Traditional Folk Civilization with over 300 buildings in an area of about one square kilometer, the biggest open air museum in Europe. Not only does it have interesting and very picturesque exhibits but it also lies in a very beautiful area with a nice view of the mountains.
