48 Hours in CLUJ-NAPOCA, Romania | Best Things to Do (Turda Gorge, Salina Turda, & MORE)

So, I know that the salt mine seemed a bit boring, but the idea of it is to relax and inhale the salty air that is very healthy for your lungs. Before this fun park was created a few years ago, people used to go in the mine for lung treatments. I hope that you still had fun.
Imagine how boring was in the past sitting there with no entertainment, no smart phones either...
@@Infin1ty2403 I haven't visited it yet, sadly I live abroad now. But in like 1997 or so, I went with our extended family in Sovata, to the Praid salt mine. I was like 7 or 8 at that time and all I can remember was a huge religious chapel and some photos on the walls. Aaa and I licked the walls. 🤣🤣 And I remember the amazing huge fresh fish that I had in there. Just for a few relaxing hours while you have other plans during the day, I think it wasn't that bad
@@alexia2189 The moment you said "aaa", m-am convins ca esti din Romania 😂😂
@@pictzone mi-e greu să mă dezvăț 🤣🤣🤣
Gresesti in apreciere, aceasta mina de sare ca si celelalte au 2 zone , una de distractie si alta pt tratament , iar aceasta mina e una dintre cele mai frumoase din lume
Thanks for the video. Romania is a place we want to visit and even more now! BEAUTIFUL
I'm from Romania, I've visited a lot of places in my country, I could give you some ideas, what you could visit...😁😁
@@elisa.134 That is so kind. My wife and I have a friend that is also from Romania that we plan to visit who is going to help us with that task, but thank you so much.
You are more than welcome here, in Romania! :)
I'm from Romania myself and never visited Cheile Turzii, but I will do so in the future! Glad you guys enjoy Romania and hope you continue to have a lovely stay. Btw: I love your filming style! Cheers from the UK!
Andrew Tate.😂
I’m also Romanian...locuiesc in Torquay Devon uk 🇬🇧. Nici eu nu am vizitat Turda si salina. Poate intr-o zi...who knows? Cu drag Mena 🌹💁♀️👍
Cheile Turzi literally means, "The Keys of Turda" in Romanian. In Romanian a pass or gorge through the mountains is called "keys" because they provide the keys to going through the mountain range.
@@mariaelenafoote4819 Translation of Maria Elena's post: I live in Torquay Devon in the UK. Neither have I visited Turda and Salina. Maybe one day... With love, Mena.
Breathing the air from a salt mine is very healthy for the lungs. That's why there are different things to do down there, just for not getting bored while you are there. Coming every day for about 30 min it's pure health.
Just found your videos on 22 June 2023. Your quality of video commentary are wonderful. I was just in Romania last December 2022 for two special events with new friends. I walked Cluj a bit. But lacked more time because my key destination cities were Oradea to the north and Targu Mures to the south. Actually, I recognized the Cluj-Napoca churches and some of the streets. I want to return soon to see more in better weather outside winter. Your video and suggestions are spot on to make the most of my next trip trip. THANKS. Oh, you are correct about the amazing local food in ALL the cities. The hospitality and friendliness of the people are top notch.
YAY 🎉 YOU GUYS WENT TO CLuj!! I love How you guys are exploring and loving Romania so much , Makes me so proud and grateful ❤ I always promote my country here in America too
We loved it so much we had to come back! You should be proud. Thanks for the awesome comments 🫶🏼
If you ever return to Romania, you need to visit Maramures and Bucovina. Sorry, let me rephrase that. You don’t need to, you MUST!!!!
The old painted monasteries
maramures is such an overrated pos of an area, i agree with bucovina, even in mountain area in timis and caras severin are more worth going than maramures
@@veneps what’s your argument? I would have said Cluj is an overrated place to visit, if anything.
@@andreeamariaprelipcean9990 cluj is underrated, beautiful architecture, clean, you also have the mountains at a short distance from the city
Máramaros has been stolen from Hungary. You boast with foreign feathers🇭🇺✌🏻...
The funniest moment was when Sammy shouted 'mici and beer"! 😂😂😂
Cluj is great❤ and so is Oradea, just in case you want to discover more beauty of Romania🤗
No it's not, it's disgusting.
_beauty of Romania_
Both Kolozsvár and Nagyvárad have been stolen from Hungary😂🇭🇺✌🏻...
@@gaborszadai1992 And Debrecen will follow if you'll keep that stupid Petofi Sandor mentality from 1848.
@@cronos1.2_sqrt5.2 _And Debrecen will follow if you'll keep that stupid Petofi Sandor mentality from 1848._
You are the best at stealing. That is well-known all over the world.😂
Apropos, 1848 (with vlachian subtitles): ruclips.net/video/KD_0Q9X_YLc/видео.html 🇭🇺✌🏻...
There's not a war champ here ... come on, take a deep breath !
OMG you guys are the greatest. I have been watching a bunch of couples visiting Romania and enjoying the natural beauty so I can honestly say that you two are the best at what you are doing, keep up the great work. "TUBORG and Mici best combination"
Blessings.
Had such a great time watching your second visit to Romania! Hope you get back soon and have another great time here!
Thks you because you promovering Romania! I invited you guy's to visiting Bucovina! You never regretted!!
I really appreciate this vlog , the Cheile-Turzii Gorge and Salina Turda are so wonderful places ... but, trust me, I'm native from Cluj-Napoca, this city deserve to be discovered more, there are so many tourist attractions inside/outside the town, I was a little bit disappointed, you showed Cetatuia and Varzarie, that's means 10% from the city, being generous ... maybe some other time you will come back to see the rest ! Thank you for promoting the lovely but underrated Romania ! 😍🥰
People go to the salt mines for various treatments. U need to stay inside at least a few hours.
Ok great tip! Thanks for watching!
Saline therapy is very good for the skin, sinuses and lungs! A lot of people come just for the fact of inhaling the salty air, plus have a little staff to pass the time while will terapy done :) Have fun!
Hey guys! If I knew that your coming to my city, I would have taken you to Turda by car! So sorry for the camera incident !
If you are coming back, some day, I recommmend you to check the domestic flights, they are quite affordable. Unfortunatelly trains are very-very slow in Romania. Hugs for you!
Thank you for promoting our city.
Cluj ❤ is for me the most amazing city in Romania and in Europe too, after living in Switzerland and abroad since 12 years now. Especially the food is one of the best. We have in cluj one of the best gastronomic centers in the country.
I feel like you didn’t get the best recommendations for restaurants and for public transportation in this area. Cluj surroundings are also nice but the city itself have so much to offer!
Wat? Cluj most boring City,, very boring people... not interesting of Cluj... Timisoara number one City in Romania
@@aurel4500 You
You're a very friendly guy, and your opinion is so appreciated ! Keep 'running ! 🙂
Are you on drugs? Cluj is not even the best city in Romania, let alone Europe.
Cluj is average at best.
Prin ce se remarcă Timișoara, ca fiind numărul 1! După părerea d-voastră, Clujul este plictisitor, iar după a multor altora, este tocmai invers, mai ales că este al doilea centru universitar al țării, unde învață la cele 11 universități, peste 110 mii de studenți, chiar si bănățeni, iar la clinicile clujene se tratează pacienți din toată țara și nu numai, inclusiv timișoreni, toate astea nu întâmplător! Acum, că părerea d-voastră este alta, este cu totul altceva, însă nu o împărtășește toată lumea! @@aurel4500
Sammy cannot be hangry! Impossible! You are both happy. And I am too, watching you.😍
Thanks for the video! I visited Cluj back in 2016 and had the time of my life! Hopefully will be returning soon.
Thank you for visiting my city! I hope you guys liked Cluj, I'm glad you got to visit Salina Turda too. That's one of my favorite places to go and breathe the clean, salty air there since it helps with my health issues. Looking forward to more videos from your trip to Romania!
It was our pleasure! We really enjoyed our time there 😍 thanks for watching 🤗
@@SammyandTommy I don't like Cluj... very boring City in Romania
I don't like Cluj... very boring people in City Cluj...
Yes, so boring! They only have Transylvania International Film Festival, Jazz In the Park Festival, International Electric Castle Festival, Untold Festival, Tango Cazino Festival, Parks, Lakes, Mountain resorts nearby, Salina etc… So boring…
Love the spirit of carefree adventuring! Hitching and epic food in one post; hard to beat.
So cool I agree with you!!
hello from Turda 🤩
I cannot believe it: you agree with me: obor market has the best mici! That was my experience 50 years ago. Glad to hear they are are still!
Lo estáis haciendo muy profesionalmente....
Me encanta.
Cuidaros mucho y a disfrutarlo a tope 😉
❤
Beautifull country, coming there soon 🤞
It really is! Have fun!
SUPER!!!!
Glad you had a great time here ❤
Yo guys , welcome to my country , thank you for the view 😅😅 she is 🔥👀
I stuck around waiting for the bloopers and extra b-roll 😢. Lol great video!
The best salt mine from my experience was Praid Salina,you have a lot of hiking ground around too,and inside the mine you can play a lot of games,ping pong,badminton,etc and also,it has more rooms,and far more interesting🙌
Did you see Slanic? That one is my favorite
Keep it up brothers ! 😊 beautiful Cluj and beautiful Romania!
Thanks for the video
Our pleasure!
Tommy, the salt mine: thanks for sharing!
Love you guys. More videos please. Another trip through Italy would be fabulous.
More to come :)
Very nice your trips 😊
23:36 epic
You guys are the cutest couple ever just so adorable and love your filming style too!!
Thanks so much!! You’re too sweet 🤗
Merveilleuse promenade ! Merci ! Amitie
Also visit Iasi. It is a very beautiful city.
Have you guy's ever considered making a video of your top 10 places you've been to that you would relocate permanently?
beautiful scenery, beautiful couple, and very good cinematography. It's very healthy to breath the air in a salt mine, why not get a massage; you need to spend a lot of time down there anyway.
Other great hikes on biggest mountains in Romania , Moldoveanu peak( highest peak in Romania) Omu Peak, Piatra Craiului, Retezat Mountains, Rodnei with Pietrosul Peak and much more! Check a village called Inelet, you only can get there through some stairs on rocks!
you guys are the best!!
Nice video, congrats ! The purpose of the activities in the salt mine (golf, ping-pong, bowling) is to spend active time in a space full of salty aerosols. The visit has a therapeutical role.
Best regards from Cluj ;)
Foarte frumos
You are lovely 😊❤ I really enjoy your travel vlogs. You make me want to visit all those places. Take care. 😊
So awesome to hear! Thanks for watching :)
Im from turda i been to cluj and i been to the salt mine and cheile turzii
* * So happy I found you guys!
Love your film, and the editing and content & music is great too.
As I was born in Cluj-Napoca...you brought back so many memories!
...and MICI AND BEER...MY GOD!
And VARZARIA si PASTAIOASE...places where I was eating at least twice every week when in high school and college...!!!
.............................................................THANK YOU !
Greetings from home...that is the US of A ! * *
You should definitely visit oradea too! I hope you had a lot of fun!
I've been following you since you were last in Romania in 2021. You can activate Romanian subtitles on RUclips. The first video of this year when you visited Bucharest has subtitles in Romanian. The second one and today's one from Romania do not benefit from Romanian subtitles.
Didn’t even realize we forgot to turn them on! Thanks for the heads up 😁
Great video 👏👏👏
Amazing ;)
Another great hike is Tarnita Lake at Piatra lui Lucaci,
I miss Cluj so much :'( I lived there 6 years
Ooooo nice .I am glad for yours traveling
Guys come to plaiesti, this is a little village where i live. If you want we can meet here.
Anyway thanks for coming here to romania. C:
I lived my first 29 years in Cluj Napoca, now I'm in LA. You guys should visit Sovata, Tusnad, they are great places to visit. Mostly Hungarian.
If you love nature you must go to Belis and Marisel “Fântânele”…..great nature great walks
You are awsome, and the most i like when you are honest about things ;) keep doing it :D
You’re awesome too! Thanks for the great comment 💜
I live in cluj,its geniunely amazing to live here
And stressing. Alba Iulia is the best. Cluj is overrated
"amazing'? lol. Bucuresti, Timisoara, Oradea, Sibiu are better
Damn you see more places in my country than I've ever seen. At least thanks for showing them! :)
Good feeling
I LOVE YOU GUYS!!!MANY THANKS FROM LONDON!!!
Thank you for the video. Kind regards from the Uk 🇬🇧....(I’m romanian 🤗❤️🌹💁♀️)
The uncut scene was pretty nice. Love seeing the “non professional” parts too!
Hehehe, that is us, in the beginning of the video, with the cutest baby ❤❤
I saw my ex motocycle at 1:30
Thank you for visiting Romania hope you enjoy our country !
hello friends greetings from new york i liked the unpredictable view from the heights of the mountain and psrte i think they did it with a drone the views look magnificent and a tremendous walk
Glorious and great view going up
Hi guys, if you visit Maramureş reach out if you need a local guide
You should visit the Moldovean (North-East) region of the country too.
Yes! The Northern Moldova Monasteries and that entire region of Bucovina are stunning! Peaceful and beautiful!
guys you absolutely must go to the statue of Decebal 😍😍😍
From cluj you can take the Mocănița train to Maramures, there are tens of awesome traditional villages with many wooden churches which are unesco sites( Rogoz, Budești, Breb, Desești, Bârsana with the Monastery, Ieud and Poienile Izei ),there is also Ronda national park and Maramures mountains national park perfect for hiking.
Or from cluj you can go south to Rimetea ( it’s not far from Turda ), Alba Julia, Rosia Montana and Apuseni National Park.
Maramures is Beautiful! Bârsana Monastery is superb! The whole region is stunning! Love it in May or September-October…
My city ❤️❤️❤️
You sure love mici, y just have some on today menu!
Hey Guys, thanks for another excellent video!
Super fain! Felicitări! 👍🇷🇴 Mergeți și în Anina cu trenul Anina - Oravița supranumit și Semmeringul bănățean. 🚂🚃🚃🚃🚃
123 évnyi román rémuralom ellenére még mindig szép Erdély fővárosa, a kincses Kolozsvár... În ciuda a 123 de ani de stăpânire a terorii românești, capitala Transilvaniei, prețuitul Cluj, este încă frumoasă...Despite 123 years of Romanian rule of terror, the capital of Transylvania, the treasured Cluj, is still beautiful...
My city….Cluj-Napoca I lived there first 12 years of my life……great memories
"mici and beer. ,mici and beer" :)))
Kolozsvár is a very beautiful and famous city! 🇭🇺
You mean Cluj-Napoca 🇷🇴
Good one. Hangry :)
Go to the Black Sea,
Or if you wanna see more artsy stuff visit the Transylvanian cities of Sibiu or Alba Iulia.
Or *Timișoara, which is this years European Capital of Culture.*
corect... Cluj este un oras plicticos.. am fost in Romania in October November 2022 nu am rezistat in Cluj doar 7 ore.... prefer Timisoara Caransebes Baile Herculane Severin Resita si Dunarea
Whole Transylvania with Partium, Banat and Szeklerland has been stolen from Hungary. You boast with foreign feathers😂🇭🇺✌🏻...
That song (I feel alive) in the beginning is AWESOME!
So glad you enjoyed it! Music selection takes up the most time in editing so appreciate the compliment :)
@SammyandTommy It shows that you spend a lot of time on music selection. It's almost always spectacular. I say almost because the music in the salt mine was disconcerting, but I'm sure it was meant to be.
The salt mine in Poland pretty much rocks everything else. It's a UNESCO site, so it's not so kithcy. No table tennis as I currently understand it.
Lots of places created by people who lived down there for centuries, including statuary and cathedrals.
Super video ! But be carefull where you step, there are a lot of vipers on the rocky parts of the trails.
You have the full Romania vibe, being with the dog in a trunk. I am glad of not falling in the trap with the gypsy. That some people generalized that Romanian are gypsy.
We love how friendly everyone is!
You can go to Maramures. It is very beautiful😊😊😊
♥♥
Great video again, glad you enjoyed my city and its surroundings. ✌️
Hello guys,I was just wondering how U make your selfie stick disappear
I'm Heading to Cluj this December holidays and I wanna know with which bus I can access to the SALT MINE. Thanks.
Awesome !
Oh i think just right now i am in the same airbnb that you rented 😅😅
Any salt mine in România has an important rolle. The air is sooo pure and it' s very good for your health , your lungs will say :" thank you" . We go with our kids in salt mines to help them improve they re imunitty and to clear the lungs ❤it' s like a cure with pure / fresh air ❤. And you have activities just to stay long for your health, the more you stay the more you have that cure with PURE AIR❤❤❤❤
Love the video guys 💖Hope u had a great time ,u have so much to see in Romania 👌Can't wait for the next one😁💜💚💛
Visit Oradea, than go straight to Czech Republic! Brno, Olomouc, Kutna Hora, Karlovy Vary, Prague, Cesky Krumlov
I heard that Universal or some studio hid the full Director's cut of movie "Event Horizon" in a Romanian salt mine. 😅
But then a mismanagement of the storage happened and the footage was damaged....😢
Funny fact. Actually 48 hours in Cluj-Napoca, ended with more time spent in Turda :) . The title would better be: 48 hours in Turda. Come back and visit Cluj-Napoca! Keep up the traveling and have fun. You guys are sweet!
❤️
Romanians usually just say Cluj when refering to the city. I remember visiting that big beautiful cathedral several years ago.
