The Pearl of Transylvania, Sighisoara's Citadel (city center) is the only completely walled city in Europe where inhabitants still live *in* the wall. There are 17 towers within the wall, a large arched entrance where the iron portcullis can still be seen hanging overhead, the ancient clocktower looming overhead in the center and signs of life where the road is lined with stairs, with a smooth path in the middle for carts. This town is one of the most beautiful places I have ever been, every building and allyway, post card perfect.
