Sighisoara Citadel, Romania – Birth Place of Vlad Tepes (or Vlad the Impaler)

Sighisoara Citadel, Romania – main street. Sighisoara Citadel was built in the 12th century. It is still inhabited. Sighisoara is the birth place of Vlad Tepes (or Dracula, as he became known thanks to Bram Stoker. The citadel is on the UNESCO Worlds Heritage Sites list. Although it attracts a lot of tourists, I believe it’s worth a half-day to one day visit, if you visit Transylvania Romania.
