Who is from Craiova?🇷🇴

[@ana.maria.alexandru...]

✌️

[@bogdanbughiu5366]

Originally from Craiova moved to Constanta and I'm actually back home for a few more days. would love to hang out and give you guys some tours around my birthplace Craiova and also just recommend the best place to eat: mici and some very nice zaibar (dark wine traditionally made in Oltenia)

[@alexandrupatru2892]

Aye, aye! o/

[@kritik4375]

I am from Craiova and I greet you from the city of Wayne Gretzky🤘🤘🤘

[@misstaro24]

Here here!

[@merwizard71]

Welcome to Oltenia! The south-western region of Romania. Too bad you do no longer have the car... Most of the things to visit are in the north of Oltenia, also known as "Oltenia de sub munte" - word for word translated as "Oltenia from under the mountain" in the foothills of the Carpathians. Places to visit: - Târgu Jiu - smaller city, north of Craiova, home of the famous sculptural ensemble of the great sculptor Constantin Brâncuși: it is composed of three monuments: the Table of Silence, the Gate of the Kiss, and Endless Column. - Tismana Monastery - one of the oldest in the southern part of Romania. - Cheile Sohodolului - The Sohodol Gorges - a smaller version of the Bicaz Gorges - Peștera Muierilor (Women's cave) and Peștera Polovragi (Polovragi cave) - the latter is near Cheile Oltețului (Olteț gorges) - Transalpina road, connecting Oltenia with Transylvania, reaching even higher than Transfăgărășan. - Horezu, small town famous for its pottery. Nearby you can visit Horezu monastery, Bistrița monastery, Arnota monastery. - Further east Olănești salt mines, The Olt valley along with the Cozia monastery. These are not even half of the places you can visit.

[@denised7045]

You are right - the town itself would take them 1-2 days to visit, but the neighboring area is really worth visiting. They could rent a car in Craiova for 1-2 days.

Palinca is an alcoholic beverage mostly made in Transilvania. In the southern parts of Romania, the equivalent drink for palinca is tuica. (say tzuicah and everyone will understand). It is made from plums , but is less stronger than palinca. The original palinca is made from pears and tzuica is mostly made from plums or apricot tree. Regarding the mici , there are some places where the original recipe is strongly used, but pretty much the meat composition is the same all over the country. After watching this video, tomorrowI'll fire the grill for sure and make myself 20 mici .Cheers!

Sugestion: If you stay one week in Craiova, you could travel a little to the nord, about 110km to Târgu-Jiu and see Constantin Brâncuși operas, the city and from there travel to Rânca - Transalpina (70km), to Cheile Sohodolului (20km), to Defileul Jiului (20km) + Lainici Monastery, to Tismana Monastery (50km). Lot of green and nature.

Be sure to visit the "Nicolae Romanescu" Park, the botanical garden and the art museum. If you feel like venturing out of the city, you could spend a night at Mraconia. The place is beautiful and they also offer boat tours on the Danube.

[@elizasorin2382]

True, Craiova is not gangasta's paradise... :) BUT is true that the people from Oltenia region are, maybe, a bit more proud that they are Romanians and you do not need to play to much with this ;) :) The Romanians in the south-west are, somehow, much closer in typology to the Italians... They speak faster, with the "perfect simple" and they say that they are faster by nature :) (mai IUȚI :) )

Don’t yell too much about Rapid there, haha. They are very proud of their own local football team. You could go and see their stadium, it looks funny. The old town center is pretty cool. I recommend checking out “La castel” in the Romanescu Park, it’s an old building turned into a terrace. It might be closed now that it’s cold outside but definetly worth seeing. Also Biergarden, an old house turned into a bar. They usually open the house when it gets cold and the interior is cool.

If you'll have a passage towards Sibiu or Bucharest, maybe you can also come to this area. In the mean time, have a wonderful journey and I wish you all the best!

Oh yeah, the Cluj - Petrosani - Craiova - Bucharest Interregio train indeed. The Jiului Valley with its many tunnels are amazing, I confirm. Making these long hour journeys in Romania are my specialty. Been on almost all the CFR active lines and can say that know the Romanian railways. It's been a joy whatching you travel in our beautiful country.

Other gorgeous houses are Zamfirescu house, Bengescu house, Dianu house, Vorvorenilor Palace.

About the train ride, since I know this route quite well, I would have used autocar instead, it takes about 5 and a half hours, but since Craiova is where most Europe's locomotives are made, it felt suitable for your trip by train. There are also alternatives to the state owned CFR trains that have a free library, a restaurant (CFR trains have it too usually, it's next to the locomotive) and a vending machine, plus wi-fi, charging stations and are twice as fast. But they only go to Craiova - București - Brașov - Constanța, IIRC. And, since you have impressed your viewers with your knowledge of Romania's history and know about Our beloved and fair hero Vlad The Impaler and his cousin Ștefan cel Mare, you'll love to find out what amazing feats Our local Unifier Mihai Viteazu managed to achieve. Have a relaxing day after this long trip, I'm so excited to see some Craiovan vids! ^_^

Saturday 22 October at 21:45 there is a game on the Stadium.

[@JetLagWarriors]

are you going?

[@johndrg1132]

@@JetLagWarriors No, but how can people working at Craiova City Hall contact you? I send some messages to people to show you around. I will contact you on IG also

[@analoguemonsters]

Guys :), I guess you realized by now that mici don't come as a standard size. So, yeah, ask about their size before ordering, or you might have a big surprise. Not that this doesn't happen to us, romanians, too. Much love.

[@ajeebfoodhunter]

Hi buddy, how are u guys? Are u still in romania..keep safe ya..next year when u come, we will do some adventure yah

[@RatzY11]

It's funny that you experienced "vacation long" trips with our trains. Rides that shouldn't take more than 3 hours take 9 to 10 hours.🤣But at least you'll see a beautiful city!

[@RatzY11]

@Andy Ash in a normal country it's about 3 to 4 hours max. 😁

[@luciandogaru1549]

I'm from Craiova 😊it is a nice place. All the best guys.👍👍

[@alinatiuga1777]

One of the main issues of our country: travelling from a city to another, wasting days of holidays. 🥺😓

[@nomadrone2020]

👍 I gain weight only watching you eating 😁 , PS: taking the fork and knife and using only the napkin, that`s priceless . Have fun and share more and more new experiences wherever you go.

[@alexfescu665]

guys..you spend 1 week in Canada and 1 week in Romania, and after comparing prices, every train in Romania will look very good to you!

[@JetLagWarriors]

LOL Good point

[@spicydraks]

They did say it was good price. It's true, train rides in Canada are absolutely bullshit, well anything really is too overpriced

[@helentodorut7579]

I love your hat looks very good on you !

[@bogdantoma8472]

You airbnb is situated like 2 minutes away from where I live lol . It is actually a very nice neighbourhood with lots of greenery. P.S. maybe you should not mention Rapid Bucuresti while visiting Craiova.

[@SantaClaus111]

Bro you should get in touch with them. And show them around.

[@MihaiDanca]

Foarte bine :D

[@BogdanPatrut]

Visit Nicolae Romanescu park, it is very beautiful!

[@zacsolcan7509]

You guys are super cool

[@JetLagWarriors]

hee ehe thanks

[@justjustin5920]

Go to Dedulesti for the best mici, is pretty close to Ramnicu Valcea, which is close to Craiova. You will not regret it, the best mici are at Dedulesti

[@tudorgreere8407]

A place where you can eat the best burgers in town is a pub near the main entrance of the Romanescu park. It's called "Vicii & capricii pub" which translates to "vices and whims/quirks pub " and it is a small, peaceful pub with awsome people and a very chill vibe. Ask for the home burgers and i hope you enjoy yourselves in the "dirty south" ;).

[@robertstancu8524]

go to the most beautiful stadium in Craiova,Ion Oblemenco

[@alakntvr7179]

A bit of advice for a true Romanian mici experience - eat it with pickled cabbage or cucumbers as well - it will be a bit more ballanced. Cheers!

[@Anomalyn1]

Thumbs up for everything including Diablo II !

[@mihaiionescu1316]

There's a football match on Saturday, you can go at the Ion Oblemenco stadium

[@LusioEcarts]

Țuica is more common in the south area. Palinca is more tied to the Transylvania / Ardeal area. But to be honest.. I don't think all the restaurants sells țuica or palinca. They are traditional drinks.. and in the past țuica was often made especially by the people from rural areas (like homemade / in my yard made țuica) 😄 But it's still worth trying tho. For example țuica is also liked during the winter.. when you make it hot and put some sugar in it. Is starting to taste quite good (or even delicious) 😁 It's like the other alternative for hot wine during winter. Also țuica is good for your health too (can be used during cold days or even when your tooth hurts.. keep some țuica on it and the pain might start going numb).. but drink responsibly.. not like an aIcohoIic person 😅

[@RaduRadonys]

I could feel your hunger through my screen at the end, lol, I bet those mici didn't have a long life :))

[@BogdanBanilievici]

That's my guy, playing Diablo!

[@sanducatushe]

you must go to VASLUI. it will be an experience you won't forget

[@bogdandaily3260]

Beautiful

[@emilcalin2758]

guys... just quick advice.... if you are traveling in romania with trains for long distances 9-10 hours... its better to travel in the night cause you can have the sleeping cart(shoul cost around 30-40 $ per person). Realy nice way to travel... :)

[@vladmatei5994]

also stay clear of rapid there, i am from a small town 20 km away and part of our fun when we were kids were to throw stone at rapid and dinamo fans when they came to Craiova and the matches almost alway had an ungly outcome from the fans

[@alexandrudinca2884]

Oh my God, you guys ate mici at the local where I eat mici with some of my friends. Nice :)

[@florinho1291]

tomorow night rapid farul you need to be there.. its the match of the year

[@catalinvlaescu3889]

OMG!!! My Town?! Really?! 🤔😅🤦🤷🤷🙏☺️
