If it's a clear day, take the cable car up to the top of the mountain behind the Old Town (the one with the very classy 'Brasov' sign).

The view over the town and the mountains beyond is spectacular, especially when the sun comes out and turns the houses below varying shades of gold.

You can also climb up a zigzag path to the top, apparently this takes about 45mins if you're fit.

Closed on Mondays, open till around 5pm otherwise.

From Piata Sfatului, take Str. Hirscher to the end, then turn left for 200m and right onto Str. Julius Romer to reach the base station.

If you want to buy some tea glasses, head for this shop just behind the Spice Bazaar. There's a wide range and, as it isn't a tourist-oriented shop, you can buy them cheaply and individually (thus avoiding the overpriced sets a few metres away in the Bazaar).

Go out of the exit at the junction of the 2 sections of the Spice Bazaar and turn right.
