Timisoara tourist information
Timisoara Romania
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. YouŽll 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. The town played host to important cultural and sports events. Thus, the first football match ever attested in Romania was played here in 1899. Timisoara used to be nicknamed "Little Vienna" due to its similarity to the capital of the empire to which it belonged. Since 1918, after World War I, Timisoara has been part of Romania.
