There is a local secret, very unusual that tourists often come in the area know him. From the House of Culture building, starts a very narrow street, paved with cobblestone old for decades, leading the way up on the hill west of the village. It's so narrow and cramped between houses and gardens on one side and then the other, that rather slip on it. But worth it: once you reach the top, away from the last houses, you meet a nice view of the village and especially the "mountain". Stone Secuiului ie, in the form of giant lying on its back. Stone Peak reaches an altitude of 1.128m Secuiului.
Rimetea, near the Unitarian church, lies what locals call "vaior". It's an ancient spring with powerful flow, which flows into six pools. It is a trademark of the village, because for centuries the villagers use it for watering animals and washing carpets.
White tower of the Unitarian Church of Rimetea, erected in the central square, dominated the entire panorama settlements. Functional clock hundreds of years of the church, measures time in Rimetea.
