In Transylvania at the edge of the Southern Carpathians, Sibiu was European Capital of Culture in 2007 and impresses with three medieval squares, houses with eye-shaped roof windows, and a vibrant cultural scene. The Saxon old town and nearby Carpathians make it one of Romania's most beautiful places.
