Lisko’s American Life

538. City of Sighisoara

Standing on the street here, it seems that time and space have flowed back to the era when art sprouted and competition flourished. Lisko really wanted to witness those masters engraved in history with his own eyes.

Zhang Li held Lisko's hand with great interest, stood in front of the building, and asked the bodyguards to help take pictures, gesticulating with scissors from time to time, with a smile on his face.

For her, the places where she can travel with Lisko need to be photographed and remembered.

The destination after that was chosen by Zhang Li. Because it was a girl, he chose the city of Sighişoara.

At first, Lisko was a little disapproving, because the people he met at the gate of the airport had ruined his favorability with this country, and he didn't think there was anything here that could make his eyes shine. I would like to go to Austria, Hungary, Czech Republic after filming with Zhang Li to receive the influence of art, but Naihe has a famous saying, don't argue with girls, so I can only shrug my shoulders helplessly and accept her proposal.

As soon as the car drove into the city, Lisko felt his eyes light up. This place seemed to be the real place of western fairy tales, full of brilliant colors, completely different from the cold and indifferent place before. He really couldn't think of Romania. There is such a city.

There are many cobblestone-paved paths on the side of the street. People can't help getting out of the car and stepping on it with their own feet. Even the car can't help but slow down, enjoying the scenery of this medieval town quietly.

The biggest feature here is the candy house next to the street, which is also the reason why Zhang Li chose this place, after all, no girl can refuse the candy house.

"Wow."

Looking at the place that only appeared in fantasy, Zhang Li let go of Lisko's hand and ran towards the house, followed by Yu Qing and two security personnel.

"Look, a lot of candy."

Zhang Li turned around and greeted Lisko. This scene seemed to have only been seen in a Harry Potter movie in his previous life. It was the Honeydukes Candy Shop in Hogward.

"I will have a child in the future, and I must bring her here once."

Zhang Li picked up the small basket next to him, and while putting the candies he picked out in it, he muttered softly.

There are many kinds of sweets here. Hard candies, hard filled candies, milkfat candies, jelly candies, polished candies, gum-based candies, inflatable candies and pressed candies, and many varieties that Lisko has never seen before. At the beginning, he just followed Zhang Li Waiting and watching curiously, I found the candy I was also interested in later, and joined the ranks of purchasing.

By the time the two walked out of the candy house contentedly, the purchased candies had already filled an entire shopping bag.

Zhang Li, who was worried about looking at so many candies, received Lisko's suggestion to treat these things as souvenirs and give them to everyone in the ranch.

Put the things in the trunk and start the journey to the future.

Sighisoara is a famous historical city in Europe. It was built in the twelfth century and has a history of more than 850 years. The current Sighişoara still completely retains the original appearance of the medieval fortified town.

The two walked along the cobblestone road. This is a small town built at the foot of the mountain, so you still need to climb the mountain to see the scenery.

Walking on the road, feeling the touch of cobblestones on the soles of his feet, Lisko kept observing, and it took him a while to understand the reason for building the road in this way.

"Do you know why they built the road like this?"

Li Sko triumphantly asked Zhang Li on the side, as if he had solved some big secret.

"Isn't it for foot massage?"

Zhang Li answered in a daze, she has seen many such roads in China, it seems that this is the role.

"What the hell?"

Lisko was a little dumbfounded.

"Eastern Europe does not have the custom of pedicures. You see, the cobblestone roads here will have a narrow groove path. No matter how heavy the rain is, it will flow away along this groove. Once the rain stops, pedestrians can go on the road immediately. , never said that the water was wading, so this is for the convenience of drainage.”

After finishing speaking, he stood there proudly, waiting for Zhang Li's praise.

But there was no answer for a long time, and when I looked up, the other party had already continued to climb, so I had no choice but to catch up.

Continuing to go up, there is a small path covered by wooden boards, with layers of stone steps on it. I read the introduction of the stone tablet next to it. Only then did I realize that this is the scholar's ladder, which is for the convenience of students going to the school on the top of the mountain. In Romania, there is often heavy snow in winter. In order to protect students from walking on the snow-covered mountain trails, a roof was added to the top of the stairs.

Lisko closed his eyes and stood there, as if traveling through time and space, and felt the hard-working students walking past him. They held hands, helped each other, and climbed up step by step.

After feeling the traces of the stone ladder, after the impact of wind, water and rain, the surface is no longer so smooth, and an ancient and strong historical atmosphere blows over us.

The ladder was built in 1642, with a total of 176 steps. The top and both sides are made of wood. It is said that this is the oldest original building in Sighişoara. The steps are original, no electric lights are installed inside, and the light comes entirely from the gaps in the wooden boards on both sides.

When Lisko and Zhang Li finished climbing, they were already out of breath. After all, they had climbed for so long before, so they could only stand still, watch the scenery down the mountain, and take a rest temporarily.

Looking down from the mountainside, various Eastern European-style roofs appear in front of you. The most striking one is a tinsmith tower with a strange shape. The base of the tower is square. The roof has a hexagonal plane and is asymmetrical, full of contradictory feelings.

After resting for a while, the two climbed up again full of pride. This is the meaning of mountaineering, which allows you to conquer heights one after another.

With mutual encouragement and help, a group of people finally climbed to the top of the mountain. At this time, the shirts of Lisko and Zhang Li were already wet with sweat, but the feeling of standing on the top really made people feel open.

There are also many buildings on the top of the mountain. A pointed school appears in front of you. Looking at the introduction at the door, this is a school built by the Germans. It was built in the 16th century, so the hill is called Academy Hill.

It is still in use now, and most of the schools are children from small towns at the foot of the mountain.

Because it is still running, it is inconvenient to go in and watch it, so I can only turn my attention to the church next to it.

Regarding this church, there is also a very novel feature, called the Village Defense Church, which is a landmark building in the city.

It is said that there is a special room in the church called the Marriage Prison, which is dedicated to mediating divorce disputes. At that time, the bishop stipulated that any couple who wanted to divorce would be provided with meals by the church. The two had to live together in a small room in the church for a month. There was only one bed, one table, one chair, one plate and one fork in the small room. If they reconciled, they could leave early Here, only one couple is said to have divorced in the three centuries that the bishop lived in the hilltop church.
