Tampa Mountain - Day Two

24th March 2012

Only did a few things this day, went up Tampa Mountain, did some food shopping and rested :D

Mid-morning, we went up Tampa Mountain, the natural landmark of Brasov.
They put a Hollywood style "Brasov" sign at the top as you can see from the image below.

We took the cable car up to the top and then took a nice stroll down through the woods.


Just a short bit down the mountain the path divides allowing you to either continue downwards or head back up to the part where the Brasov sign is. We headed that way and when you get there, the view is pretty vast. I took several photos to put together for a panorama but will not really be able to stitch the photos together till I get back home. Until then, enjoy this partial view of what you see at the top.


There's a little platform, with a fence to stop you falling down the mountain, for people to look out and see the view just beside the sign. As way of proof that I was there I've also attached the photo of myself up there!


The way down is fairly long but not necessarily too much so, if that makes sense. Basically, unless you've got a lot of time or are very fit, it is a good idea to take the cable car one way and walk the other. 

All the other photos uploaded have been put on my Flickr account and are shown in slideshow below.





Created with flickr slideshow.


After walking down the mountain and heading through the town, we stopped by to buy some food essentials so that I could have breakfast in the morning and lunch when at the sanctuary. Then we headed back to the apartment and just rested till the next day. All fairly relaxed at the moment.
