Favorite thing: Other place in the middle of the city is the Stefan cel Mare Square, on which one can admire the National Theatre and the State Opera, all in one building.
In front of the house, was placed two statues, which represent two big Romanian poets: Mihai Eminescu and Lucian Blaga.
All buildings that bordered the place are history parts of the city and of the country.

Favorite thing: A walk on the narrow streets of the old quarters, one becomes its rewards through the lovely view, from the hill of Cetatuia.
Maybe it is hard the whole way to go on foot, but you can drive very easily also by car.
On the knoll, the hotel Belvedere is placed. This is a beautiful place for the tourists, to sleep, well to meals, or simply to relax.
From there above, one can observe the whole city and one can admire its beauty.
It is a splendid view!

St Michael Church rule the square and the equastrian statue remember the famous Hungarian King Matthias Corvinus because during several centuries Hungary rules the fates of actual Romanians
