Plan your Trip to Cluj-Napoca
Travel with Aegean Airlines to enigmatic Cluj, Romania’s second-largest city, with a nostalgic atmosphere and a distinct cultural identity, in the shadow of the legend of Count Dracula.
Built in the valley of the Someșul Mic River, the unofficial capital of the historic region of Transylvania is a place with a long and enchanting history. This is a land of encounters, of ancient tribes with Roman rulers, Hungarian kings with Serbian revolutionaries, heretical religious orders with legendary vampires, medieval towers with the eclectic examples of Baroque and Art Nouveau. From the ramparts of the Tailors’ Bastion to the architectural feast of the central Unirii Square and from the grand alleys of the green Central Park to the stylish hangouts of the university district, you will discover a city with an authentic personality and a myriad of unexplored treasures.
Book your tickets and discover the European Youth Capital 2015 from up close, a dynamic university town that has a passion for dark mystery stories, music festivals and a vibrant nightlife.
St Michael’s Church: Built in the 14th and 15th centuries, the second largest Gothic church in Romania is a monumental work of architecture that towers over the central square of Cluj. The impressive neo-Gothic belfry, a 19th-century addition, is the tallest in Transylvania (80 metres). Among the wonderful decorations inside are the stone veins of the domed roof, the Baroque pulpit and the fragments of Renaissance frescoes.

Typical Romanian flavours with a particular Transylvanian touch, strongly influenced by Hungarian tradition and Italian cooking, cuisines from all over the world and a great love of sushi make up Cluj’s cosmopolitan gastronomic identity.

Take a seat at one of the open-air cafes in Piața Muzeului for a strong espresso and sweet delights, such as gogoși (sugared donuts) or papanași (fried dough balls filled with soft cheese and covered with various types of sour jam).
