Stopover in Teliu - Valley
|
|
A pilgrimage in the area of Ardeal should not bypass Tara Barsei, and after that a stopover in Teliu-Valley, in the county of Brasov, should not be neglected. We can find here a location meant to make our souls rest because of the beauties of nature, but also because of the wellness emanating from the spirit of community, a place where prayers entwine for years with music, poetry, Christian art and youth camps.
Local inheritance
"Our commune is located on the touristic couloir Prejmer ? Teliu ? Budila ? Vama Buzaului, in the heart of Romania, in a landscape with unique natural resources. The customs and traditions of Romanians and Hungarians are preserved here and joint cultural events are being organized. In this period of time, the Carnival of Children is organized where the children of both ethnics participate, and the Ensemble "Cetatuia" Teliu, with the parade of popular costumes. We have a great collaboration with the Social-Cultural Association "Suflet Transilvan", founded as a consequence of the community needs, but also with the purpose of promoting local customs and traditions." declared Vasile Serban, the Mayor of commune Teliu.
