It's more of an aesthetic, tourist pleasing thing now, but previously they hung their pots to dry after washing like that. Vitalie – Actually I'd love an accurate translation of those lyrics, if you've got the time. Mary – That alleyway is in Braşov, it's alleged to be the narrowest street in Europe. At 40 seconds is a shot of the interior courtyard of Bran Castle, one of the primary attractions in southern Transylvania. At 2.43 is Peleş Castle in Sinaia, the other primary attraction in southern Transylvania. Bree – Those are quite literally ‘pot trees’ from the Maramureş region (north).

And that ginormous building 40 seconds in? Where's that one? Oh oh oh ! And what about that one at 2:43? Where'd you take that?

Excellent slideshow. Perfect choice of music (I imagine you know the meaning of the song?) Moldova is probably the only country in the world where car license plates can not only have "ANAL" on them, but also "ORAL", too bad you didn't include that one ;) ttyl Vit Hi Leif!
