I hope you like this adventure!
ORADEA Transylvania
Nestled between the gentle hills of western Romania, Oradea is one of the most important economic and cultural centers in the region. Thanks to its strong manufacturing and services sectors, Oradea has become an economic powerhouse that competes with other prosperous Transylvanian cities like Arad and Cluj-Napoca. Oradea is home to the University of Oradea, one of the largest in Eastern Europe, with 15 faculties and 123 fields of study.
About
Oradea is the capital city of Bihor County and the historical Crisana region and is the tenth largest city in Romania, covering an area of 11,566 hectares. The population of Oradea was 196,367 in 2011, out of which 73.1 percent are Romanians, 24.9 percent Hungarians, and 1.2 percent Romani. People of many other ethnicities call this multicultural city their home.
History
The city on the Crisul Repede river was first mentioned in 1113, under the Latin name of Varadinum. Under Hungarian domination, Oradea started to develop economically and culturally in the 13th century, the period when the Citadel of Oradea was built in order to protect the settlement from the Mongol invasion. The city flourished over the next centuries, when numerous monuments and buildings were erected throughout the city.
Location
Oradea is located near the western border of Romania, on the hills surrounding the Apuseni Mountains, only 10 kilometers away from Bors, the most important border crossing point between Romania and Hungary. As such, Oradea is the main gateway to Europe for travelers who leave the country by car, as well as for commercial transport. Crisul Repede divides the city in two, almost equal parts, offering scenic landscapes on both sides.
The names of the city
Oradea is a city of many names, reflecting the multiple factions that ruled it over the centuries. Today, we know Oradea under the names of Großwardein - in German, Nagyvárad - in Hungarian, Groysvardeyn - in Yiddish, or Varat - in Turkish. Until 1848, Oradea actually consisted of four separate towns: Várad-Újváros, Várad-Olaszi, Várad-Velence and Várad-Váralja. In 1925, Oradea Mare (Great Oradea) became simply

Don't be easily fooled by what you see, advertising is the mother of heaven, you always choose images made by professional photographers and video editors, it's really not like you see in the video, but something has improved I admit, but also many projects finished only 80% ie (head without tail) rest remain on other times. See also unpleasant things in Oradea. kzread.info/dron/lV56HiESA8CJQRiD7g8l5Q.html
Interesting drive. It seems hard to get the feel of the city culture, it seems to me to a little like Warsaw ,beautiful but serious. Thanks my friend for the drive.👍❤️🇨🇦🚙

I am from Oradea, our city is not a "friend" city with motorists, but the distances are small, the objectives achieved by you, can be visited in a walk of about 3 hours
My beautiful childhood city! I watch videos when I miss it! I have lived there for 18 years and 18 years in London!

@@Vercixx Romanian Crișana is bounded in Romania by Maramureș to the north, Transylvania proper to the east, Banat to the south, and Hungary to the west. The region consists of the current Romanian counties of Arad (most of it), Bihor and some parts of Sălaj, Satu Mare, parts of Maramureș County (Codru, Chioar) and Hunedoara counties. Nowadays it is sometimes considered part of the historical region Transylvania, although it did not fall fully within the boundaries of the historical principality.
