Let's plunge into the days of old and discover together how Cluj first appeared, from a small trade-post at the edge of the Roman Empire, all the way up to the emerging metropolis of today. I will guide you through the most iconic streets and the most important monuments and I will tell you the legends and stories behind each of them. Legends involving kings, princes, monks, commoners, stories of assassination, of justice and many more. You will understand the layout of the city centre and I will also show you the best places to have a cold beer or a good ice cream. Join me in this journey!
