Brasov - It looks like this..

Brasov - "Strada Sforii" - the narrawest street in Europe.
It is 80m long and 110cm wide

Brasov - And another usual street. This is the kind of street you can find in Brasov. I really like it. It is a city with great atmospheare.

Brasov - Another street..

Brasov - One street.. To have a better image on Brasov

Brasov - A park in Brasov ! (it's called "the park" although they have more than one)

Brasov - An administrative building. I don't know exactly what is it but is nice

Brasov - Another image from the square

Brasov - City Hall

Brasov - The central square !
Place where people have a moment for themselves, where people relax.
Every year(in september) "Cerbul de Aur" (Golden Stag) music festival takes place here
In background: The BLACK CHURCH, probably the main attraction for turists

Brasov - Same street. Another view !
There are many shops here, many coffe-bars, places where people can feel just fine

Brasov - The "main" street. The one that people like to have a walk on

Brasov - After 2h driving from Pitesti we arrive at Brasov

Brasov - Panoramic view !

Rucar-Bran Road - Travelling on this road may can very pleasant. You can enjoy many beautiful landscapes. Thre are many parkings specialed designed for nature lovers from where you can take photos with great panoramas. If the weather is fine(fow us it wasn't) you can have a great view on the "piatra Craiului" Mountains. The BRAN caste is also one of the sights that most visitors appreciate.

Rucar-Bran Road - This is where our journey starts out.

Pitesti - One final TULIP !

Pitesti - Lots of flowers

Pitesti - Pigeon
I thought a little about publishing this photo.. To publish or not to publish. I thought this picture has nothing to do with Romania and Pitest. But at a second thought I realised that Pitesti is more than this images. Pitesti is also atmosphere. In the central square there are a lot of pigeons and a lot of flowers who make this atmosphere. For the moment I don't have pictures with the central square (maybe next month)

Pitesti - Mihai Eminescu's Statue 1850-1889
He is consider a genius and also the best poet Romania ever had. He is very well known in Romania and other European counties although the translation of his work isn't as good as the original. Here is a link with the translation of some of his literary production:

Pitesti - City Hall

Pitesti - Muntenia Hotel

Pitesti - Just Life - People On Street !
This is not a beautiful picture. This is just the atmosphere from a casual Sundy-May 2005 (if I remember it well)

Pitesti - The Regional Library
This is the new building of our library. It is very apreciated beacause it is computerized (and you can search easier) and has a lot of rooms where you can read everything you want in good conditions.

Pitesti - Spring !

Pitesti - Lots of flowers, a lot of joy

Pitesti - Gushers

Pitesti - "1907 Park"

Pitesti - St George's Church
