Cluj-Napoca
Cluj-Napoca is Romania's second largest city with a population of 324,000. It dates back to the Dacian settlement of Napuca in the 2nd century AD. After the Roman takeover of Dacia, it was renamed Napoca and received the rank of "Municipium" in 124 AD. Due to its social and economic upswing, it was granted the title of "Colonia", the highest possible urban status in the Roman Empire, during the reign of Marcus Aurelius.
The former "Colonia" is now a lively student, administrative and cultural city. It is characterised by a good infrastructure, including excellent local transport connections and numerous leisure opportunities.
Cluj also offers a wide range of cultural activities: the Gothic Cathedral of St. Michael, the Bánffy Palace and the historical architecture are considered the city's sights. There are also theatres, museums and cinemas, as well as a lively local scene that sweetens student life.
