str. Sextil Puscariu, no. 10 Cluj-Napoca, Romania, +40-264-597-898
It is Sunday at everything except the churches are closed. CLuj has several large churches, one of which is broadcasting its sermon into the plaza. 20 people are standing outside, listening to the service while facing the church. Not sure why they don't go in.
I hike to the top of a hill for a great view. Two of the museums ...
Located out of town, but close to the economic area of the city, BLACK TULIP, a four stars hotel, represents the perfect destination for those wishing to rest. I have appreciated the room atmosphere, the quality of the services...and the high degree of refinement of the cuisine.
... is a fortified town and the citadel is on the World Heritage List. Buildings of interest included a lovely Clock Tower built in 1360, a very long, very old (1640), covered staircase and the Church on the Hill. We indulged in an ice cream and an apple strudel before heading on to Turda. We arrived in Turda and asked directions at the Information office to our hotel. It’s called the Hunter Prince ...
Turda, Romania souterThe train from Sighisoara to Cluj Napoca was another sauna experience. I had opened the window, but the elderly woman in our berth asked me to close it (though she herself was sweating).
The only good thing about Cluj was a brilliant candy store in which we spent a fair amount of money (for Romania).
Sighisoara to Cluj: one 2nd class ticket (3 hours) – 36.70 lei
... työmatkalla, kun lentoasemalla oli kuski vastassa. Ei tosin koppalakissa ja tummassa puvussa, mutta kulkupelinä oli sentään juuri pakasta vedetty Skoda Octavia. Reissu lähti jälleen lennokkaasti liikkeelle, sillä jäin jumiin hotellihuoneeseeni heti ensimmäisenä aamuna. Tuli siinä sitten tehtyä kaikki elokuvamanööverit, kuten ovea kohti heittäytyminen olkapää edellä. Mietin jo respaan soittamista, mutta sitten hoksasin, mik ...
Cluj-Napoca, Romania sannakoo... avea dreptate, era clar un abuz.
Si se pune si suna la presa, si cheama ziaristii si organizeaza conferinta de presa si face copie dupa document la toata lumea, si mai si ameninta ca da in judecata primaria Cluj daca nu primeste autorizatie de constructie.
Dupa o luna vine DNA-ul cu mandat de perchezitie la sediul firmei si in masina lui. Si ce crezi ca gasesc in masina lui? O servieta plina ...
... and a wood stove in lieu of heating. The people were incredibly welcoming and I'll never forget it. In addition to the small village we stayed at though we also traveled all over Transylvania, visiting the city of Cluj-Napoca and checking out other villages to meet traditional artisans and see such impressive sites as fortified Hungarian Protestant churches and traditional wooden Romanian Orthodox churches.
It was absolutely fascinating, though to be honest I ...
... group here, and in Hungary, is the gypsies. Now what is it with the Gypsies? You see these very colorful people gathered on the street, dressed in beautiful outfits, the men with these wide brimmed hats and long dark mustaches, the women brightly clothed and with long dark hair. Always with LOTS of little gypsy children. But every single person we speak with warns us about the gypsies. We're repeatedly told that they will steal stuff from you, that ...
Cluj Napoca, Romania rawhideone... but the highlight of this place is definitely the nightlife. Our first night here, a Wednesday, was the most pumping night scene we've come across in all of Europe! We went to two different clubs, the first was called Texas and had a western theme, but it was packed with mostly students and then we went to Euphoria and it was off the hook! So many damn people and the girls were ...
Cluj-Napoca, Romania trent... closer to the original Latin than French, if deviant in the opposite direction. The funny thing is that Latin characteristics show up in other aspects of the culture, like red tile roofs and city-center parks. All in all Cluj-Napoca is nice, though without any obvious tourists or attractions.
