#Brasov Old Town Visiting and staying in the heart of the Old Town Attractions: Black Church (Biserica Neagră): The largest Gothic church in Eastern Europe. Named for the blackening of its exterior by a fire in 1689. The church houses a giant pipe organ with 4,000 pipes and a large collection of precious Anatolian carpets. Parliament Square (Piața Sfatului): The central triangular square of the Old Town, surrounded by colorful Baroque buildings, the historic Old Town Hall (now a history museum), and the Orthodox Cathedral built in 1896. Rope Street (Strada Sforii): One of the narrowest streets in Europe, approximately 80 meters long and only 111 to 135 centimeters wide, a must-see for tourists. Mount Tampa (Muntele Tâmpa): A superb viewpoint overlooking the entire Old Town, with the famous Hollywood-style "BRASOV" sign at its summit. Medieval fortifications: Includes the White Tower and Black Tower, built in 1494, and the historic Catherine's Gate, which once served as a checkpoint separating German and Romanian quarters. From Bucharest, pass by Bran Castle: Located near Brasov, this castle is the historical inspiration for the famous novel *Dracula*, shrouded in mystery. Peles Castle: Located in the neighboring town of Sinaia, this is an extremely luxurious and exquisite German Neo-Renaissance palace, considered one of the most beautiful castles in Europe. Highly recommended town #Brasov
