With some terrific road trip options in the surrounding area, renting a car makes sense. Without one, it wouldn’t be half as easy to enjoy everything that Alba Iulia, 40 miles away, has to offer. Soak up the sights beginning with Alba Lulia Citadel, Catholic Cathedral and Sala Unirii. Sibiu is another popular option. It’s 60 miles away and boasts an array of intriguing things to see and do. Liar’s Bridge, Brukenthal National Museum and Council Tower are just the start.
