Echoes of the Past
Back in Time 🐑 Poiana Muierii 🌾
From time to time, it is important to reflect on who we were, who we are, what we once had, and what we still hold dear. And, perhaps most importantly, we must look ahead and ask ourselves what we will have, for the wheel of time turns—and it turns faster than it once did. Come, experience the Gate of Transylvania with us.
The connections between Romanians on both sides of the Carpathians run as deep as the people themselves. The centuries-old tradition of the shepherds from the Land of the Momârlans, whose roots stretch across the confluence of the counties of Alba, Sibiu, Gorj, Vâlcea, and Hunedoara (along the Transalpina), stand as a testament to the region’s rich cultural heritage. In Poiana Muierii, Jiu Valley, the area’s ethnographic history traces back to 1484, when local shepherds first celebrated an ancient pastoral festival.
