Drove for three km along the eastern dam wall. Looks like the whole of the dam is concrete and it goes for kilometers, kind of just, funnels the water. Maybe keeps the lands from flooding….

Saw a few sheep flocks being herded to pasture. The most we have seen so far.

One town had houses that were really well decorated with fancy plastering and painting.

We stumbled on a fortified Evangelical church (UNESCO listed) largest and most renowned in Translvania, built between 1493 & 1522 on the sight of another church. So went for a look. Quite amazing but not sure where they would have fitted the townsfolk when the marauders came.














An interesting lock on the “treasury door” near the altar, which is quite famous for it’s intricacies. Also known for the choir seats.




Did a supermarket shop just before Targu Mures the best supermarket I had been in for a while. Lots of bulk nuts and dried fruit as well as teas, coffee, cocoa, seeds and Muesli for $2.50kg. The best muesli we have had. So bought about 6kg. Also in the Freezer were bulk loose veges. A first for me.
Targu Mures is quiet a big town and had some impressive buildings and statues and of course churches.
 


We headed East on a yellow road which was a great road and pulled off down a little track and across a very slippery bottomed rocky river. Direction was dictated by the rocks! Out on the other side to perch above the creek for a quiet night.
