Romanian term or phrase: Marginimea Sibiului
Salutare tuturor.
Am dat adesea peste traduceri care fac referire la regiunea 'Marginimea Sibiului', pe care de obicei o lasam ca atare, fiind denumirea unei zone pe care am considerat mai oportun sa nu o furculitionizez.
Doream sa va intreb daca exista o expresie general-acceptata sau un termen convenit in lb engleza pentru aceasta Marginime.

Multumesc mult pentru orice sugestii.

English translation:Outskirts of Sibiu
Explanation:
Intr-adevar, este o zona cu caracteristici speciale, iar denumirea este aparte (in maghiara: Szeben-Hegyalja, germana Hermannstädter Randgebiet) -- insa, in limbajul turistic se foloseste des "Outskirts of Sibiu" pentru denumirea ei (dupa parerea mea ar trebui sa traduceti macar in paranteze)-- iata un exemplu:

http://www.tiff.ro/en/node/672
Marginimea Sibiului (the Outskirts of Sibiu) - its larger meaning is the geographical, historical and ethnographic entity formed of Romanian villages at the bottom of Sibiu MountainsWith its medieval buildings preserved in their original form, and its numerous attractions, Piata Mica Square is a must for any traveller. During the Middle Age in this square (recorded in the documents as 'circulus parvus') there were the houses and workshops of the Sibian craftmen.
