We will then head to the city of Sighisoara, whose historical center is also included in the UNESCO Patrimony. Sighisoara is home to one of the few inhabited medieval citadels in Europe. Due to its remarkable architecture and stunning surrounding landscape, the city earned the name of “The Pearl of Transylvania” ever since the end of the 19th century.
