Highlights of Brasov

Nestled in the heart of Romania, Brașov is one of the most beautiful cities in Transylvania. Surrounded by the Carpathian Mountains, it offers colourful streets, medieval walls and fresh mountain air. It is a perfect destination for a city break in Romania.

Explore the Old Town

The historic centre of Brașov is full of charm. Start your visit at Council Square (Piața Sfatului). Here you will find pastel-coloured buildings, lively cafés and stunning mountain views. The square is overlooked by the famous Black Church, the largest Gothic church in Eastern Europe. Step inside to admire its impressive organ and rich history. Just a short walk away is Strada Sforii. It is one of the narrowest streets in Europe. It is small, quirky and perfect for photos.

Walk the Medieval Walls

Brașov still has parts of its original fortifications. Visit the White Tower and the Black Tower for panoramic views over the city. The old city walls and bastions tell the story of Brașov’s Saxon past. For the best viewpoint, hike or take the cable car up Tâmpa Mountain. From the top, you will enjoy breathtaking views of the red rooftops and the surrounding forests.

Discover Bran Castle

No visit to Brașov is complete without a trip to Bran Castle. Often linked to the Dracula legend, this dramatic fortress sits on a rocky hill about 30 minutes from the city. Inside, you can explore narrow staircases, medieval rooms and fascinating exhibitions.

Enjoy Outdoor Adventures

Brașov is ideal for nature lovers. In winter, head to Poiana Brașov for skiing and snowboarding. In summer, the surrounding mountains offer hiking, cycling and wildlife spotting. You may even see bears in the forests. The nearby Carpathian Mountains are perfect for day trips. Fresh air, scenic trails and peaceful landscapes make this region special.

Taste Local Romanian Food

Traditional Romanian cuisine is hearty and full of flavour. Try sarmale (cabbage rolls), mici (grilled sausages) and papanasi (fried doughnuts with sour cream and jam). Many local restaurants in Brașov serve authentic dishes in cosy, rustic settings.
