The mysterious town of Sibiu, Romania

🌟 🌟 🇷🇴 About Sibiu: Located in southern Transylvania, Romania, Sibiu is a historic and fairytale-like ancient city. Founded in the 13th century, this pedestrian-friendly city is divided into the Upper Town and Lower Town, connected by the legendary "Bridge of Lies." The architecture here is a blend of Baroque and Renaissance styles, especially the houses decorated with "eyes," which are unforgettable. 🏰 Sibiu Great Square: Located in the heart of the city, Sibiu Great Square was documented as early as the 15th century. The towering clock tower and colorful houses on the square form a beautiful picture. 🎨 Brukenthal Museum: The Baroque-style building on the west side, the Brukenthal Museum, was built in the 18th century and is one of the oldest museums in Romania. The museum houses not only a European art gallery but also a Romanian art gallery and a library. 🌆 Council Tower: Built in the 13th century, the Council Tower is the tallest building in the old town, with seven floors. The tower with pale yellow exterior walls and a blue clock under the spire was once a defensive fortress of the city. 🌉 Bridge of Lies: This bridge connects the Upper and Lower Towns of Sibiu. According to legend, if someone lies on the bridge, it will collapse. Therefore, many couples come here to make vows of love. 🏰 Orthodox Cathedral: This church is reminiscent of the Hagia Sophia in Istanbul, Türkiye. Although smaller in scale, the interior is luxuriously decorated, and the Neo-Byzantine style and exquisite murals are impressive. 🏰 Lutheran Cathedral of Saint Mary: Built in the 14th century, this church was originally a Romanesque building. The five spires tower into the clouds, and you can climb to the top via a spiral wooden staircase for a panoramic view of Sibiu.
