Luna plina

Christmas mood

We’re officially in the winter season when the specific decorations start to show up in the city.

Cluj-Napoca is not an exception to this rule, the city glittering and flickering when the night is becoming the city’s ruler.

The best winter decorations you can find in the center of the city, from the Orthodox Cathedral, followed by EroilorStreet  to MattiaCorvin Square. You can find everything winter related covered in LEDs, but the most interesting ones are the ones that are Christmas relates: Santa Claus, Snowman, Santa’s sleigh with the deers.

What young people seem to enjoy the most is the ice skating ring from the MattiaCorvinSquare. So that you won’t leave the ring all frozen up, around the square there are some little stalls where you can find mulled wine, meat Christmas specific products, “kurtoskalacs” – specific Hungarian sweet or traditional handmade ornaments for home.

Gradina botanica Cluj Napoca

The Cluj-Napoca Botanical Garden, officially Alexandru Borza Cluj-Napoca University Botanic Garden (Romanian: Grădina Botanică Alexandru Borza a Universităţii Cluj-Napoca), is a botanical garden in Cluj-Napoca, Romania. It was founded in 1920 by Alexandru Borza.

The garden is over 14 hectares in area, with over 10,000 plants from throughout the world. It is divided into ornamental, phytogeographic (geobotanical), systematic (taxonomical), economic, and medicinal sections. Romanian flora and vegetation are represented by plants from the Transylvania plains, the Carpathian Mountains, Banat.

Among the Botanical Garden's interesting attractions are the Japanese Garden (a garden in Japanese style, with a brook and a Japanese-style house), the Roman Garden with archeological remains from the Roman colony of Napoca, among them a statue of Ceres, goddess of cereals and bread, alongside cultivated plants that dominate contemporary Romanian agriculture.
