An autumn walking at the White Tower in Brasov, Romania

in #travel6 years ago (edited)

Dear friends,

Today I will tell you about the White Tower in Brasov, a tourist destination that you should not miss if you visit the city.

About the White Tower you should know that it was built in 1494 and it is 18-20 meters tall. The name 'white' comes from its appearance, being whitewashed.

The White Tower is part of the Brasov ensemble, being the highest monument. It had a defense and observation role. It is arranged on five levels, the entrance is made of wooden stairs, with metal railings, on the city side.

A fire in 1689 destroyed much of the tower, being rebuilt in 1725. Today's appearance is due to the renovations that were made during the years 2003-2005.

Access can be made right from the Graft Bastion, on stairs, or on a path through the forest starting from the other tower, the Black Tower.

It's a good place to see the city and take pictures.

Around there are benches for rest, I took the pictures of the city from different angles, trying to encompass more and more in the pictures.

Situated at a short distance from the White Tower is the Black Tower, which is 11 meters tall.

I invite you, therefore, to discover the beauty of Brasov.
