2018-06-20T23:21:00.000+03:00

I have created this page with a view to promoting tourism in Romania and sharing with you my passion for bikes and the experiences I had in the course of my trips on two wheels.

Am creat aceasta pagina in ideea de a promova turismul in Romania si de a impartasi cu voi pasiunea mea pentru motocicleta si amintirile din calatoriile mele pe doua roti.

On day two the first thing we visited was the fortress at Rimetea, Alba County, also known as Trascaului fortress.

In a doua zi primul punct vizitat a fost cetatea Rimetea, jud Alba sau cetatea Trascaului

View from the fortress.

vedere de pe cetate

Piatra Secuiului (Szekler’s Rock) can be seen in the distance.

In departare se vede Piatra Secuiului

It is said that Rimetea is the place where the sun rises twice, and that’s because Szekler’s Rock, which overshadows Rimetea, is so close and so high, that even after the sun has risen in the morning, Rimetea is still in its shadow, although it is daylight outside. Then, after it’s had time to rise still further in the sky, the sun peeks from behind Szekler’s Rock, practically rising a second time, to light Rimetea village as well.

Se spune ca Rimetea este locul in care soarele rasare de doua ori. Si asta pentru ca Piatra Secuiului, care strajuieste Rimetea, este atata de aproape si atata de inalta, incat chiar si dupa ce rasare soarele dimineata, Rimetea este inca in umbra, desi afara e lumina. Apoi, dupa ce are timp sa se mai ridice un pic de pe cer, soarele se iveste de dupa Piatra Secuiului, rasarind pentru a doua oara pentru a lumina si satul Rimetea.
