Hello, My name is Mark Tudose and few years ago I have start "Art & Crafts" in Sighisoara. At first I have made a local artist gallery with handmade products around Sighisoara. I do the wood part in the gallery. In time we developed more opening a museum section for our gallery with pieces made of wood about 50 years ago. This year is for the first time when we will open this museum part for our customers. So, feel free to visit us and let me know your opinion. I really think that the only way for a craft it comes with the story behind. I hope you will like our stories.
This souvenir shop in the historical center has various products made by local craftsmen: from wooden carved spoons and hand painted Christian icons to handmade magnets showing the most iconic attractions of the city. The owner is very polite and hospitable, even gives more details about the products and the stories behind them.

The Teleki Castle is situated about 20 km from Targu Mures, in the Reghin direction. Before you visit the castle, it is recommended to call there because the tours are private and in different languages. We arrived there without calling. Because of removing the stuff after the Awake Festival which was held there the previous days, we could enter and wait on a bench in the courtyard for an hour in order to wait for the English tour. We had as a castle tour the son of the Count Teleki, the owner, who nicely presented us the castle in about 50 minutes. The castle is built in U shape in a late baroque style, but in a reversed manner, just like another castles around Budapest. It is surrounded by an amazing English garden with old oak trees and an old ginkgo biloba tree. The castle is under refurbishment and only a part of it may be visited; there can be seen original old doors and stoves, several great Murano chandeliers and pieces of furniture. The entrance is free and you can donate for the refurbishment of the castle. You may also buy some souvenirs about it or things made by artisanal artists. I highly recommend to visit the castle!

Who hasn’t heard of the (in)famous Dracula? Vampire or ruler, known near and far for his cruelty. Here, at The Dracula Investigation, you will learn that this story also starts with a simple human being like you and me. A person with feelings, a traumatized kid - allow us to present you the real Vlad Dracula - the son, brother, warrior. Inside, in 5 rooms Vlad himself will tell you his life story. You will get to see animations, sculptures and light/ shadow effects. We invite you to travel back in time with us to get to know Dracula’s human, real and often hidden part.
An original idea presenting the life of Vlad Țepeş (the Impaler) in an interactive way with videos, sculptures and audio, creating an adequate atmosphere for his life story.

At Teo’s 500-year-old cellar you can taste, enjoy and buy different sorts of local alcoholic beverages such as brandies and liquoirs. Among those several have received different prizes for their outstanding quality at national and international fairs. Our family has been producing these beverages for the past 200 years following traditional recipes perfected by local Saxons for centuries from the local area, also known as Tarnava Valley. Our brandy is kept in oak barrels for at least 3 years.
We spent a very pleasant 2 hours in Teo's cellar and in his company. What can we say? As a couple who very regularly go wine-tasting, we can confirm that his wines are delicious, his award-winning cognac is fabulous, and his fruit liquors and brandies are superb! If we were to revisit Sighisoara, we'd happily stay in Teo's accommodation next time.

The city leadership, at the beginning of the twentieth century, decided to build a new city center, and chose that the three buildings to be built be made in the Art Nouveau style. It was possible to build only two of them - the Cultural Palace and the City Hall (currently the Prefecture) and the Theater was not built. The architecture of the Palace of Culture is absolutely superb, made with great attention to every detail, and is in a perfect state of preservation. I did not have time to visit it inside, the cost of a ticket (approx. 3 Euro) being practically symbolic. If you have time, visit it during the day, to admire its architecture, but also at night, when the building is artistic iluminated
