The story of the place

In the centre, the banks of the Crișul Repede have become a promenade lined with restaurants and terraces offering a variety of cuisines, while the pedestrian Intellectuals’ Bridge links the two banks. It is the natural route between Union Square, the Zion Synagogue and Ferdinand Square.
