Romania Day 8 - The Black Church in Brasov

Fortunately, this morning we had the chance to sleep in. We had until 10 o'clock to be on the bus, and then we set off to the nearby city of Brasov.

Once we arrived, we started our city tour, again led by Bogdan Bergmann. We got to see the narrowest street in the city, called Rope Street, which is so narrow that only a man with two buckets of water can pass through. Of course, we also visited two churches and even got a glimpse inside a synagogue.

Afterwards, we had about 4 hours of free time to get some food, stroll through the city, or relax and gather our strength in one of the parks for the upcoming concert.

In one of the parks, we had a great view of a nearby mountain with the name "Brasov" written in large letters, similar to "Hollywood".

After this long and relaxing time, we met in front of the Black Church, where we were going to perform in the evening. We got our concert attire from the bus, changed into it, and our concert began. After about an hour-long program, we reached the end, as the tiredness was starting to show.

Nevertheless, we attentively listened to the short lecture by the host about the breathtaking organ of the church. We were treated to a beautiful prelude by both him and Florian, a member of the choir.

However, after dinner, we received some bad news: one of the two buses had broken down. But eventually, in two trips, we managed to return to the hotel and could comfortably end the evening there.
