HISTORIC HEART
Street square and neighborhood to visit
Read moreAlmost square in shape, the beautiful central square, piața Traian, has a park at its center, where you'll see a large blue clock and the Sfânții Arhangheli church, an ex-mosque converted in 1831. Nearby, you can also visit the superb and imposing Buna Vestire Greek Church (1872), with its colorful stained-glass windows and paintings. From the piața Traian runs the strada Mihai Eminescu, the city's only pedestrian thoroughfare, bustling with shops and onlookers. The large park(Grădina mare) and the harbor esplanade along the Danube are also pleasant spots.
