I survived another 4-HR HOT train ride to arrive at Cluj. A
group of us led by a hostel staff to enjoy Cluj Jazz in the Park festival
(6/30-7/5). A pleasant way to enjoy a summer evening outdoor. There were many
food and drink vendors. The middle of the central park hosts a small lake and
the Chios Casino, from the terrace of which you can rent rowboats and
hydrobicycles to circle the small island in the centre of the lake. Cluj is a
college town with all kinds of events going on all year round. Some of us went
to a haunted forest electric music party then after. I just came back to hostel
to rest. — checked in to Centru Cluj.
I ran into an open air Italian opera two blocks away from
the hostel. Nabucco was about the plight of the Jews as they were assaulted,
conquered and subsequently exiled from their homeland by the Babylonian King
Nabucco (in English, Nebuchadnezzar II). The historical events are used as
background for a romantic and political plot. Unfortunately, the subtitle was
in Romanian and the guy sit next to me kept on talking to himself, so I left
after one hour. Nevertheless, I walked back to hostel after taking some night
photos and could still hear the opera when typing in my hostel. — attending
Nabucco - Opera Aperta at Piata Unirii.
