TIMISOARA is the most western like Romanian city, both in democratic traditions as well as in outlook. Within 40 miles from
Hungary and Serbia alike, this city prides itself with its elegant baroque squares, churches of many faiths, new German and French libraries and a
pedestrian only, downtown. Timisoara is an excellent place to wind down. You'll find a mind-boggling selection of beer patios, cafes, restaurants,
and gift shops along "16th December 1898" boulevard.
Timisoara is also a place for ethnic diversity. Along Romanians (65-70%) there are Germans, Hungarians, Serbes, Slovaks, and a Jewish community. And contrary to trends in other parts of Eastern Europe, they do get along remarkably well. Timisoara should be a reference point of a tolerant place, of a community with higher purpose.
Timisoara has a number of museums, ancient cathedrals, monuments and parks that are worth a visit. The surroundings of Timisoara are rich in tourist sights. The towns and villages are each a feast for the eye. They preserved their traditional charm and peaceful atmosphere. The local people are pleasant, cheerful, and hard working. One should come here if one really wants to get to know them.
The oldest buildings of the present historical center of Timisoara were built at the beginning of the 18th Century, which is why it is often known only as a Baroque city. The town itself is much older but, except for parts of the Huniade castle, neither the medieval urban structure nor any building dated before 1716 can be seen today.
Timisoara is located in a swampy plain where two rivers, Timis and Bega, periodically flooded the territory. The confused network of subsidiary streams and swamps led to the fact the city, built on both sides of the river Bega, took its name from the river Timis.
