Why take this tour?

Spend quality time with this nice day trip not far away from Brasov. You will be picked up from your location in Brasov and driven to the village of Ohaba, where you will visit an old water mill which is still used nowadays by the locals and for those who still prefer the old way of grinding wheat. Continue your trip to the nearby village of Sinca Veche, where you will visit the cave temple, famous for being a mystical place where people used to come and pray. Because its popularity has become bigger and bigger, the place is usually full of tourists who enter the caverns and experience - some say - unknown and invisible powers that give them chills. You next stop will be in Sinca Noua where you will go on a 10 minutes easy hike to visit the Podu Ilii viaduct, which belongs to an abandoned railway track. For its times, it was considered to be the biggest arched concrete viaduct in Romania. You will have a delicious lunch near the village of Poiana Marului and return to Brasov.
