This morning, head to the outskirts of Sibiu to visit the ASTRA Village Museum. Spanning 96 acres around a shimmering lake, this open-air museum brings Romanian folk culture to life, preserving traditions and everyday ways of living from centuries past. As you wander through the grounds, you’ll discover reconstructed homes, windmills, and workshops, gaining insight into how people once worked, lived, and raised their families.
In the afternoon, enjoy free time to explore at your own pace. You might visit the impressive Orthodox Cathedral or the equally stunning Gothic Lutheran church. Alternatively, treat yourself to a warm covrigi, stroll through the old town, and capture the charm of its colourful, almost cinematic architecture.
