Sibiu Warnings Or Dangers Tips by Dabs Top 5 Page for this destination

Under construction

Sibiu has been chosen as the European Cultural Capital for 2007 which will be great for tourists visiting in 2007 but not so great for tourists traveling in 2005 and possibly 2006.

As you can see in the attached photo, one of the main draws to Sibiu, the ordinarily charming and picturesque main square, is under major construction. Signs posted around the square show a lovely picture of what it should look like when it is finished which is projected to be the end of 2005.

This didn't ruin our visit here as I knew about it before visiting but if I had to pick one place on our itinerary that I would have skipped, Sibiu would have been it.

My advice, if your itinerary is tight, is to check with the locals about the progress for when you are visiting. If you are going that way anyways, its still worth a stop.
