Breathtaking view of Brasov from the top of Tâmpa Mountain

The ideal moment to get to the top of Mount Tâmpa is right before sunset. After taking a few photos and having a drink at the Panoramic Café/Restaurant, it’s time to head back down. It’s now night, and Braşov looks even more beautiful when it’s dark. Don’t just take my word for it – take a look at these pictures.

In the image above I mainly captured Cernatu. Like, comment & share!

235-2020 – Gulas

Today’s photo of the day, part of “a photo a day challenge 2020”, is about a traditional dish in Transilvania: Gulas Our neighbours invited us to join them for lunch and they cooked a wonderful Gulas with chicken and polenta. They made it in a crockpot hanging over a wooden fire. Delicious! The food was wonderful, but the homemade cognac topped it all. Smooth and aromatic. Like, comment & share!
