- Diana Alexandra2 contributionsThe most beautiful place from BrasovThis is the most beautiful place from Brasov with a nice view to the Tampa mountain. It's almost always full with people, regard any season. A spot with a powerfull historical personality, with nice bars and places to eat, and, of course, museums and other attractions. I really enjoy this place!Visited May 2023Travelled as a coupleWritten 17 May 2023
- JolieeLondon, United Kingdom149 contributionsBeautiful year roundI love to visit Piata Sfatului every tie I'm in Brasov. It is a lovely place all year long, but I particularly like to visit in the winter when they decorate the Christmas tree. In 2022 they had one of the most beautiful Christmas tree in Europe. The new city administration has invested quite a lot in culture and entertainment in the city. There seems to always be somethign going on in Piata Sfatului .. whether a concert, a book fest or something else.Visited August 2023Written 10 August 2023
- Jim WSindelfingen, Germany2,930 contributionsOne Of The Prettiest Plazas In RomaniaDuring a Halloween trip to Romania, my wife and I visited Sighişoara, Braşov, Bran, and Sibiu. We really enjoyed what each city had to offer. However, we really enjoyed this remarkable stop on our tour. Perhaps, it was because our tour guide was born and raised in Braşov, perhaps not. We just loved the openess of this main square. There is so much to see and do with lots of shopping and plenty of dining facilities. Make sure your visit to Romania inudes Braşov.Visited October 2023Travelled as a coupleWritten 27 January 2024

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

The showstopper in the Town Square that is picture perfect, great to see from any angle it anchors the town square and creates the perfect picture. Love the way the lines work in the square as well.

Very nice with a good view of the hills with the Brasov sign. There is a nice atmosphere both by day and by night and there are plenty of restaurants.

The main square of the city. Big, beautiful, surrounded by beautifully restored buildings. Full of restaurants with exaggerated prices. In the immediate vicinity is the Black Church.

Piata Sfatului, located in the heart of Brasov, is a vibrant and historic square that truly captures the essence of this charming city. Piata Sfatului exudes a sense of history and authenticity. The architecture reflects the rich heritage of the area, and the square itself has served as a gathering place for locals and visitors for centuries.
The focal point of Piata Sfatului is the beautiful Council House (Casa Sfatului), an impressive Gothic building that dates back to the 15th century. Its tall tower offers a breathtaking view of the surrounding area, and the interior is filled with fascinating historical artifacts. I didin't enjoyed to much de food from the old square, but, the atmosphere was awesome!
I'll be back!
