I did not know what to expect but this place is incredible. It’s huge, there is a big wheel inside and a boating lake. Interesting too.

3 week Holiday in small town near Cluj - called Campia Turzi. Then toured within 100 mile radius. Fantastic - beautiful scenery, mountains, rivers, lakes - never saw a caravan ! Walking and horse riding is superb. The food was first class and 100% organic as is the whole Country. It was hot - very hot close to 40 deg. The attractions are too many to list here right now but we went clay shooting, mountain walking, river walking wow its a rugged Country. The people were very friendly and it was very safe to walk around even at night. So many police deters the bad folk. Went to a mountain church where the head priest has his own "Tweeka" (apple brandy) brewery. More than 80% proof rocket fuel. He gave us a full lunch and a couple bottle this brew - no charge. The bars and cafe's are joy to sit outside and have a very cheap beer or three. Fantastic cake shops and you must try the cake called "Papanasi" - if this is not the best cake you have ever seen or eaten. Made with blackberries and cottage cheese - just sublime. I spent another 10 days in a hotel with my 35 year old son - the Sun Garden near Turda in Cluj. We had breakfast, lunch and evening meals then guests for drinks every night. Cam to settle the bill on leaving - just COULD NOT BELIEVE It - came to less than £1000 when I was expecting £3000 ! Finally for now this is a land of truly Beautiful people and super super fit. Is there any fat people in Romania? I do not think so. The women have to be seen to be believed.
