The Medieval and Legendary Small Square of Sibiu

Small Square Sibiu view to Council Tower, Turnul Sfatului at night

I met the medieval, legendary, and quaint Small Square at night time, in the Citadel of Sibiu.

The picturesque Small Square looks shy of new visitors. But as my footsteps echoed on its cobblestones, its fabulous history came alive in front of my eyes.
