Charming view of the village inside Rasnov Fortress, where traditional houses with half-timbered walls and red tile roofs overlook cobblestone streets. This unique settlement was built to shelter inhabitants during sieges, transforming the fortress into a truly self-sufficient city. Snow traces on the roofs and the winter blue sky create a fairy-tale atmosphere, while visitors stroll among artisan shops and ancient dwellings that tell centuries of Transylvanian history.
