Day 2: Moieciu village - Brasov - Prejmer Fortified Church - Viscri Saxon village

In the morning, enjoy breakfast at the guesthouse in a very picturesque landscape, with beautiful hills and mountains. Not to mention lots of photography options.

We leave Moieciu village behind and move further to Brasov medieval city. The city provides a mix of wonderful mountain scenery and medieval history with German influences. We will take a walk in the Old Town (the Historical Centre), and discover its attractions: the Black Church, the Town Hall, the Black Tower, Ecaterina's Gate and the Rope Street - the narrowest street in Europe.

Depart Brasov to discover the most beautiful saxon heritages of Transylvania. Our first stop will be Prejmer Fortified Church - a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the largest fortified church in Southeastern Europe, built by the Teutonic knights in the 13th century.

Our final stop for today will be the village of Viscri, one of the most beautiful Saxon villages in Transylvania, designated as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. We will visit the Viscri Fortified Church, one of the most impressive in the area, built in the 12th century. From the fortification's towers you can admire the village scenery, with its hills and authentic hand-tiled roofs of the houses and barns. You will have the opportunity to discover the typical rural life from Transylvania, as well as the wonderful craft and culinary traditions of this timeless village.

Today, you will experience an unique accommodation opportunity - a traditional 4* local Saxon house where you will enjoy an oasis of tranquility and greenery together with a traditional mouth-watering dinner included, prepared with fresh local ingredients.

PS: Do not miss the cows coming back from the pastures in the evening.
