Romania: Clujnapoca and Bucharest, tailor-made, fully flexible travel

Cluj-napoca, or simply Cluj (as it is colloquially known), is one of the most populous cities in Romania as well as one of the most active, vibrant and cosmopolitan in the country. Much of the blame for the contagious enthusiasm of what was once the historical capital of the Transylvania region lies with the second largest university in Romania, whose students inject the town with large doses of vitality, dynamism and creativity. As they say in the city, in Cluj-Napoca there is always something to do at any time of day... or night. Its large and comfortable avenues connect with its 3 main squares where a large part of the city's attractions are concentrated: Piata Unirii (Union Square), Piata Muzeului (Museum Square) and Piata Avram Iancu (Avram Square). launcu). In the first of them rises majestically the Biserica Sfantul Mihail (Cathedral of Saint Michael), the most outstanding element of the extensive heritage legacy of Cluj-Napoca. The Piata Unirii houses the Bánffy Castle, an 18th-century baroque building that currently houses the National Museum of Fine Arts; the Josika and Rhédey palaces; and the Monumentul Matei Corvin (Monument to Matthias Corvinus), an equestrian statue in honor of the king of Hungary and Croatia from 1458 until his death in 1490.

Bucharest, the vibrant capital of Romania, has an outstanding heritage in the form of elegant historical buildings and valuable artistic gems inherited from its long and surprising past. A legacy that is also reinforced by an important leisure and entertainment offer, among which its more than 30 museums stand out, such as the Romanian History Museum, the Satului Museum and the George Enescu Museum, and beautiful parks where you can relax, such as the Herastrau park or the Cismigiu. Known by the European aristocracy as the "Paris of the East", Bucharest offers the traveler treasures of different styles such as neoclassical, art deco or belle epoque, where the Arcul de Triumf, the Romanian Athenaeum, the Bucharest Opera and Curtea stand out. Veche, the first Royal Court. It is also home to modern buildings that will bring you closer to the most current and capitalist city, and pharaonic and sober constructions from the communist era. In this sense, we recommend the Palace of Parliament, which according to the Guinness Book of Records is the most expensive, bulky and heavy administrative building on the planet; the Boulevard Unirii (Unity Boulevard), which runs through the Piata Unirii (Unity Square), both trying to imitate the Parisian Champs Elysées; and the Piata Revolutiei (Square of the Revolution), where the Central Committee of the Party was located. Without a doubt, one of the most attractive cities in Eastern Europe.
