Today we are exploring some of Romania's hidden gems! Join us as we continue on our road trip and visit a UNESCO fortified medieval church, Rupea fortress, and a lake hidden near an inactive volcano.
Our first stop of the day was at the perfectly preserved medieval church in Viscri. This church is set in a quaint, rural village which gives you a true taste of Romanian life. We definitely recommend braving the rickety stairs and taking in the gorgeous views from the top of the church, it's worth it!
We then visited one of the oldest settlements in Romania, Rupea Fortress. This fortress is set high above the town and offers beautiful panoramic views of the Transylvanian countryside. It is a great stop if you are traveling the road between Brasov and Sighisoara.
To end the day, we stopped at Emerald Lake for a quick swim. We were lucky enough to have great sun on our visit and we got to experience the emerald green color of the lake. On days when isn't so sunny you might experience a duller color. It was a great last stop because the water was super refreshing and the surrounding area was very quiet and peaceful with only a handful of visitors.
Thanks for watching! We would love for you to like, comment, and subscribe if you enjoyed this video!
