Well preserved medieval which you can take a stroll around. Eating options aren't great, since everything is limited to a hotel's restaurant. I would recommend going out to the nearby busy street with all the restaurants. It's also very disappointing that cars can drive around this fortress, hopefully they can change that in the future. Additionally, it is plastered with tourist souvenir shops selling everything Dracula. Very tacky. However, these are only my nitpicks. I had an amazing time walking around and immersing myself, as well as enjoying the view. However, I wouldn't say this is a 100% must see if you're in the country. Stunning with great selection of bars and restaurants inside, as well as a lot of great souvenir shops. “Try not to miss this stunning if you’re in the area! It’s full of charm and history. Time seems to stand still here as you sip a coffee or take photos of the winding streets lined with storybook-like houses… Be sure to visit the Covered Staircase and the History Museum in the Clock Tower, which offers a breathtaking view of the city. Beautiful vibe. Such an underrated UNESCO site! Love my stay within the citadel itself. Magnificent medieval fortress! The historic center is located in the medieval of Sighisoara. As with most historic town centers in Romania it's rather small. I was under the impression that it would take at least a day to explore. It took us a bit over 2 hours to walk it all including almost all its streets, the covered stairway, souvenir shopping, and a cup of coffee in one of its cafes. The old town is nice but there's not much else to do in Sighisoara. Amazing place. It's Vlad's birthplace. Also, you can eat in the building where he was supposedly born and where he spent some time. The place is worth visiting for many reasons. Another one is the original infrastructure. You can literally feel the old times. All these walls, towers, alleyways, cobbled roads, massive church with an interesting history (and catacombs)... Oh and don't forget the wooden stairs. These stairs... Well you will know when you get there. And definitely pay the visit to the clock tower as it's not just some clock tower, inside it there is the museum, where different floors have different things to show (impressive) and at the top, the view you get is absolutely worth every penny (tickets are really cheap) Nice little city, and museum! At the entrance of the citadel is the best ice cream with dragon fruit, home made. And there's also chimney cake shop. Great views from the tower. Nice for tourist or local people Oh My God! Was like stepping into some fairly tale land. So beautiful. We are in Mimosa food was delicious. It is a great city it has three or four castles that you can visit .They have lots of touristic restaurants, traditional food that you can buy near 10-20 lei.
