You can climb the old tower and see a beautiful panoramic view of the village and the hills around it. You will also visit Walter's distillery and taste palinca.
Then, you will head to Sighisoara, a city that has played an important strategic and commercial role at the edges of Cetral Europe for several centuries.

You will also admire the deer house, the mayor's house, the Venetian house, and many other beautiful and historic buildings in the fortress.
