Åžcheii BraÅŸovului is the old ethnically Bulgarian and Romanian neighborhood of BraÅŸov, a city in Transylvania, Romania. This village-like section of the town is mostly made up of small houses built along narrow roads with gardens and small fields on the sides of the mountains. Until the 17th century, the inhabitants of Åžchei were forbidden from owning property inside the city walls. The people living in the Åžchei could only enter the town at certain times and had to pay a toll at the Catherine's Gate for the privilege of selling their produce inside the town.
