About my native town of Sibiu:
Sibiu (Romanian pronunciation: [siˈbiw], antiquated, Sibiiu; German: Hermannstadt, Hungarian: Nagyszeben) is a city in Transylvania, Romania, with a population of 147,245.[1] Located some 215 km (134 mi) north-west of Bucharest,[2] the city straddles the Cibin River, a tributary of the river Olt. Now the capital of Sibiu County, between 1692 and 1791 and 1849-1865 Sibiu was the capital of the Principality of Transylvania.
Sibiu is one of the most important cultural centres of Romania and, in tandem with the city of Luxembourg, it was designated a European Capital of Culture for the year 2007. Formerly the centre of the Transylvanian Saxons, the old city of Sibiu was ranked as "Europe's 8th most idyllic place to live" by Forbes.[3]

You should see the real thing, Reynold! I've catch some of the charm but the Sibiu city itself it's even more gorgeous...And Vlad the Impaler really lived there for a couple of years (after having burnt the city a couple of times, some years before that...) And I wish I could do more of those watercolors...One could work a lifetime and not finish to explore its charms...Thank you!
