Tour Details
Did you know that Bra?ov is considered one of the most beautiful cities in Romania? You can see for yourself when we meet in front of the Modarom building in Revolution Square, where we'll begin our free walking tour of Bra?ov.
Right at the start, we’ll dive into the history of this Transylvanian city, located near the famous Bran Castle, linked to the Dracula legend. Located at the foot of the Carpathian Mountains, Bra?ov is a medieval city where history comes alive as you walk through the streets of the Old Town.
During the tour, we'll visit Bra?ov's main attractions, including Council Square (Pia?a Sfatului), the heart of the citadel, full of cafes, restaurants, and museums like the History Museum and the Council House, the former Town Hall.
Next, we'll stop by Bra?ai Square and Schei Gate, a 9th-century triumphal arch that served as the entrance to the old Romanian district.
Nearby, we'll find Catherine’s Gate (Poarta Ecaterina), the oldest gate in Bra?ov. It is a true gem! We'll also explore Rope Street, known as the narrowest street in Romania.
To finish, we'll see the Black Church, a temple that became the main center of worship between Vienna and Istanbul thanks to its impressive structure.
After 2 hours and 15 minutes, the free tour ends in front of this iconic church.
