Braşov

Brașov is a city in Transylvania, Romania. It's set in the Carpathian Mountains in the centre of the country, 180 km (110 mi) from Bucharest. It's mostly a modern industrial city with a population of about 250,000, but the reason to visit is the well-preserved Old Town. It's also an alternative base for skiing at the nearby resort of Poiana Brașov.
