The traditional costume, celebrating at Gura Râului

Traditional Costume Celebration in Mărginimea Sibiului

Every year, dozens of young people from the Mărginimea Sibiului region gather in mid-August to proudly showcase their traditional costumes. The celebration of folk attire takes place annually in Gura Râului on the Sunday after the Feast of the Assumption, attracting hundreds of locals from all areas.

The Atmosphere of the Celebration

For a few hours, the entire commune is dressed in black and white, with:

  • Children
  • Teenagers
  • Grandparents

walking the streets in traditional garments. This spectacle delights tourists who rarely have the chance to witness such a celebration.
