Word for the traveler
The summer is here. Enjoy it in the Carpathians, on the shore of
the Black Sea or in the water jungle of the Danube Delta. No matter where you'll go, rest assured it will
be an unforgettable journey. Summer is a time of celebrations. Many popular and cultural events accross the country await their audience. One of the most special of these events is the medieval festival of Sighisoara, now a well-established tradition. Located in the Transylvanian plateau, surrounded by green hills featuring picturesque saxon villages, Sighisoara is a unique town. It has never been deserted, rebuilt or used as a touristic souvenir. It has always been a town as it is today, a place where authenticity and traditions are just a part of daily life. It took me a while to understand what attracted me to the medieval festival: it's the people who make it. Not the sponsors, not the organization, but simply the people. >> |
