2. You continue your journey to Viscri (10 km, 10min), one of the most beautiful Saxon Villages and the place where King Charles himself owns a house. Although known to travelers, Viscri is populated by Saxons, Romanians and gypsies, with families going about their regular life in a normal way. The only oddity might be seeing groups of tourists that come to visit the fortified church. Here you can visit the fortified church in the village, part of the UNESCO World Heritage, the local blacksmith and take some time to relax and enjoy the natural beauty of the area. You will have lunch in the yard of a lady who will cook for you traditional dishes with fresh ingredients picked directly from her garden. She cooks for whoever joins at the table so the atmosphere is usually lively and people from all over the world meet and enjoy a meal together in a typical household. This is a 3 course lunch, with beverages included (water, elderberry specialty, wine, schnapps, coffee).

   2,5 t

3. Drive to Rupea Fortress (10 km, 10min), a UNESCO World Heritage site, one of the most attractive Transylvanian middle age fortresses.

About Brașov

Brașov is a medieval Transylvanian city ringed by the Carpathians, with a Gothic Black Church, a cobbled main square and day trips to Bran Castle.

Brașov lies in a basin of the Carpathian Mountains in central Romania, with the wooded Tâmpa hill rising above its old town. The city was built up by German settlers, the Transylvanian Saxons, and its centre is a tidy grid of baroque houses around Council Square, with the Old Council House in the middle. The Black Church, the largest Gothic church between Vienna and Istanbul, was blackened by a fire in 1689.
